| Chapter 1 |
1 |
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, and standeth not in the way of sinners, and sitteth not in the seat of scorners;
|
2 |
But his delight is in Jehovah's law, and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
|
3 |
And he [is] as a tree planted by brooks of water, which giveth its fruit in its season, and whose leaf fadeth not; and all that he doeth prospereth.
|
4 |
The wicked are not so; but are as the chaff which the wind driveth away.
|
5 |
Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
|
6 |
For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.
