| 1 | Blessed is the man that doeth not walke in the counsell of the wicked, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in ye seate of the scornefull: | 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 delite is in the Lawe of the Lord, and in his Lawe doeth he 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 | For he shall be like a tree planted by the riuers of waters, that will bring foorth her fruite in due season: whose leafe shall not fade: so whatsoeuer he shall doe, 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 | The wicked are not so, but as the chaffe, which the winde driueth away. | 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 stande in the iudgement, nor sinners in the assemblie of the righteous. | 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 Lorde knoweth the way of the righteous, & the way of the wicked shal 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. | |
