Be subject to the Lord and pray to him Envy not the man who prospereth in his way; the man who doth unjust things.
Rashi
Wait for the Lord Heb. דום. Wait for His salvation, as (in I Sam. 14:9): “If they say thus to us, ‘Wait (דמו)!’” mentioned regarding Jonathan. Menachem (p. 64), however, associates it as an expression of silence, as (in Lev. 10:3): “and Aaron was silent (וידם).” He likewise interpreted (Lam. 3: 26): “It is good that one should wait quietly (ודומם) in this manner, and Dunash (p. 27) concurs with him. and hope Heb. והתחולל, an expression of hope (תוחלת). do not compete saying, “I will be as wicked as he, and I will prosper as he does.”
