1 O the blessedness of that one, || Who has not walked in the counsel of the wicked, || And has not stood in the way of sinners, || And has not sat in the seat of scorners; 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 delight [is] in the Law of YHWH, || And in His law he meditates by day and by 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 has been as a tree, || Planted by streams of water, || That gives its fruit in its season, || And its leaf does not wither, || And all that he does he causes to 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: But [they are] as chaff that wind drives 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 do not rise in judgment, || Nor sinners in the congregation 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 YHWH is knowing the way of the righteous, || And the way of the wicked is lost! 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.
