The Psalms

The Psalms 1


The Righteous and the Ungodly
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, Jer. 17.8
        
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.
