Psalms 1
1Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of + 1:1 Gr. pestilent. evil men. 1
2But his + 1:2 Gr. will. pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in his law will he meditate day and night. 1
3And he shall be as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, which shall yield its fruit in its season, and its leaf shall not fall off; and whatever he shall do shall be prospered. 1
4Not so the ungodly; —not so: but rather as the + 1:4 Or. dust or down. chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth. 1
5Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgement, nor sinners in the counsel of the just. 1
6For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
