 * LESSED 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.
 * But his delight is in the law of the Lord;
 * And in his law doth he meditate day and night.
 * And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
 * That bringeth forth his fruit in his season;
 * His leaf also shall not wither;
 * And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
 * The ungodly are not so:
 * But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
 * Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
 * Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
 * For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous:
 * But the way of the ungodly shall perish.


 * do the heathen rage,
 * And the people imagine a vain thing?
