��Psalm i.

��THAT man hath perfect blessed- Who walketh not astray [ncss In counsel of ungodly men, Nor stands in sinners' way,

��Nor sitteth in the scorner's chair ;

But placeth his delight Upon God's law, and meditates

On his law day and night.

��He shall be like a tree that grows

Fast by a river's side, "Which in its season yields its fruit,

And green its leaves abide ;

And all he doth shall prosper well.

The wicked are not so ; But like they are unto the chaff.

Which wind drives to and fro.

��In judgement therefore shall not stand

Such as ungodly are ; Nor in the assembly of the just

Shall wicked men appear.

Because the way of godly men

Is to Jehovah known ; Whereas the way of wicked men

Shall quite be overthrown.
