| Chapter 1 |
1 | Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers. |
2 | But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. |
3 | And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in season; its leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he doeth shall prosper. |
4 | The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. |
5 | Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. |
6 | For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. |
