1 Blessed is the person who does not follow the advice of wicked people, take the path of sinners, or join the company of mockers. 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 Rather, he delights in the teachings of the LORD and reflects on his teachings 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 He is like a tree planted beside streams- a tree that produces fruit in season and whose leaves do not wither. He succeeds in everything he does. 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 Wicked people are not like that. Instead, they are like husks that the wind blows 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 That is why wicked people will not be able to stand in the judgment and sinners will not be able to stand where righteous people gather. 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 The LORD knows the way of righteous people, but the way of wicked people will end. 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.
