1 Happy are those who do not follow the advice of the
wicked, or take the path that sinners tread, or sit in the seat of scoffers; 2 but their delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law they meditate day and night. 3 They are like trees planted by streams of water, which
yield their fruit in its season, and their leaves do not wither. In all that they do, they prosper. 4 The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind
drives away. 5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor
sinners in the congregation of the righteous; 6 for the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but
the way of the wicked will perish.
