THE PSALMS

BOOK I | BOOK II | BOOK III | BOOK IV | BOOK V

1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the way of sinners,
Nor sit in the seat of scoffers:
2 But his delight is in the law of Jehovah
And on his law he meditates day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also does not wither;
And whatsoever 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 Jehovah knows the way of the righteous;
But the way of the wicked shall perish.
