Ways of the Righteous and the Ungodly

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; And in his law doth he meditate day and night

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper

4 The wicked are not so; But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away

5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgement, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: But the way of the wicked shall perish.
