Psalm 37:11 " But the meek shall inherit the earth, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace."
Jesus quoted this verse from Matthew 5:5 to confirm that His own life was an example of this psalm that King David wrote so many years before. Jesus, Himself, was both meek and humble to come to earth to die for all of us. He indeed owns the earth, and through His death for us, we gained that inheritance.
He also expresses that this verse is for us today. That, through Jesus Christ our Savior, we are more than conquerors over the troubles in our lives here on earth. This is why we can delight in the abundance of peace He generously gives to us.
