| Chapter 1 |
1 | Blessed is the man that walketh
not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor
sitteth in the seat of the scornful. |
2 | But his delight is in the law
of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. |
3 | And he
shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his
fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth
shall prosper. |
4 | The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which
the wind driveth away. |
5 | Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the
judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. |
6 | For the
LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall
perish. |
