Pensée juive sur Les Psaumes 37:7

דּ֤וֹם ׀ לַיהוָה֮ וְהִתְח֪וֹלֵ֫ל ל֥וֹ אַל־תִּ֭תְחַר בְּמַצְלִ֣יחַ דַּרְכּ֑וֹ בְּ֝אִ֗ישׁ עֹשֶׂ֥ה מְזִמּֽוֹת׃

Repose-toi en silence sur l’Éternel, et espère en lui; ne jalouse pas celui qui voit réussir ses entreprises, l’homme qui accomplit de mauvais desseins.

Akeidat Yitzchak

Some difficulties in the text of the Parshah.

Duties of the Heart

(2) When he is struck with a severe financial loss, or some calamity occurs to one of his loved ones - if his calmness overcomes his shock, and he humbly accepts the Creator's decree, and justifies the Divine judgment - this attests to good submission and to his lowliness before G-d, as the verse tells of Aharon when Nadav and Avihu were killed (by a heavenly fire): "And Aharon was silent" (Vayikra 10:3), and David said: "Be silent to G-d and wait patiently for Him" (Tehilim 37:7), and "Therefore the wise shall keep silence in that time" (Amos 5:13).
