| 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. | |
| 2 | But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates 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. | |
| 4 | Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. | |
| 5 | Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. | |
| 6 | For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish. | |
