Ps 1
1
Blessed is the man who hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stood in
the way of sinners, nor sat in the chair of pestilence.
2
But his will is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he shall meditate day and night.
3
And he shall be like a tree which is planted near the running waters, which shall
bring forth its fruit, in due season. And his leaf shall not fall off: and all whosoever
he shall do shall prosper.
4
Not so the wicked, not so: but like the dust, which the wind driveth from the face
of the earth.
5
Therefore the wicked shall not rise again in judgment: nor sinners in the council
of the just.
6
For the Lord knoweth the way of the just: and the way of the wicked shall perish.
