1 How blessed is the person, who does not take the advice of the wicked, who does not stand on the path with sinners, and who does not sit in the seat 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 But he delights in the LORD's instruction, and meditates in his instruction 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 will be like a tree planted by streams of water, yielding its fruit in its season, and whose leaf does not wither. He will prosper 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 But this is not the case with the wicked. They are like chaff 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 Therefore the wicked will not escape judgment, nor will sinners have a place in the assembly 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 LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will be destroyed. 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.
