Psalms 36:3

A church father on this verse
“What shall I say about Judas the traitor, who sought after greed and found sacrilege, saying: What will you give me, and I will hand him over to you (Matt. XXVI, 15)? Not satisfied with looting the spoils of the poor, he reached the fullness of the gravest crimes by committing crimes, mixing the sacraments of charity…”

1A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evildoers, Neither be envious of them that do iniquity.

2For they shall soon be withered as the grass, And shall soon fall away as the green herbs.

— Psalms 36:3 —

4Delight thyself in the Lord; And he shall grant thee the requests of thy heart.

5Disclose thy way to the Lord, And hope in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
