Psalm 1 ©

A description of the godly man’s blessed life and conversation, in opposition to the perverse and wretched course and condition of the wicked.

1

BLESSED 1is the 2man thata walketh not 3in the counsel of the 4ungodly, nor standeth in the 5way of 6sinners, nor sitteth in the 7seat of the scornful.

2

Butb his delight is in the 8law of the LORD; and in his law doth he 9meditate day and 10night.

3

And he shall be like a treec planted by the 11rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in 12his season; his 13leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever 14he doeth shall 15prosper.

4

The 16ungodly are not so: but are like thed chaff which the wind driveth away.

5

Therefore the ungodly shall not 17stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6

For the LORD 18knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
