1 Blessed is the man who hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the chair of pestilence. Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,
2 But his will is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he shall meditate day and night. but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree which is planted near the running waters, which shall bring forth its fruit, in due season. And his leaf shall not fall off: and all whosoever he shall do shall prosper. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.
4 Not so the wicked, not so: but like the dust, which the wind driveth from the face of the earth. The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
5 Therefore the wicked shall not rise again in judgment: nor sinners in the council of the just. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the just: and the way of the wicked shall perish. for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish. For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
