Commentary on Psalms 37:3
After prohibitions (v. 1) and promises (v. 2), verse 3 gives positive commands: 'Trust' and 'do good.' Trust (Hebrew 'batach') means confident reliance and security in God, while doing good demonstrates that trust through obedience. The promises—dwelling in the land and being 'fed' (literally 'shepherded')—connect to covenant blessings (Deuteronomy 28). The word 'verily' (Hebrew 'emunah,' faithfulness) suggests certainty: God's faithfulness guarantees provision for those trusting Him. This counters the temptation to secure provision through wicked means.
