1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
2 But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4 Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
4 The wicked are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
6 For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish.
