Verses from Psalms

不要因作恶的人心怀不平,不要因犯罪的人产生嫉妒。因为他们好象草快要枯干,像即将凋萎的青草。你要倚靠耶和华,并要行善;你要住在地上,以信实为粮食。你要以耶和华为乐,他就把你心里所求的赐给你。

你要在耶和华面前静默无声,耐心地等候他;不要因那凡事顺利的,和那恶谋得逞的,心怀不平。你要抑制怒气,消除烈怒;不要心怀不平,那只会导致你作恶。(诗篇 37:1-4, 7-8)

Do not fret because of evildoers, Be not envious toward wrongdoers. For they will wither quickly like the grass And fade like the green herb. Trust in the LORD and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart.

Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. Cease from anger and forsake wrath; Do not fret; it leads only to evildoing. (Psalms 37:1-4, 7-8)

In a world of injustice and with so much evil going around us, whether it affects us directly or not, it's easy to get swept up and handle things in our way when our anger gets the better of us, let us remember that God hates evil so much more than we do, and learn to leave it in His hands, He will deal with it in His own ways, in His own time.
