34 Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, Thou shalt [by him] exalted be To dwell on earth, when as cut off The wicked [doers] thou shalt see.
35 I saw the wicked in great power, Spread like a [prospering] green bay-tree:
36 He past and was not; Him I sought, But found [on earth] he could not be.
37 Mark well the perfect, and observe The man of [sincere] uprightness, And thou shalt see that of this man The [later] end is blessed peace.
38 But the transgressors in (in God's time) Shall [surely] be destroyed together; This is the end of wicked men, To be cut off [and lost] for ever.
