- 1 Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;
- 2 but his delight is in the LORD’s law. On his law he meditates day and night.
- 3 He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.
- 4 The wicked are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
- 5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
- 6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.
