Happy are they who have not walked in the counsel of the wicked; nor lingered in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seats of the scornful!
2. Their delight is in the law of the Lord, and they meditate on his law day and night.
3. They are like trees planted by streams of water, bearing fruit in due season, with leaves that do not wither; everything they do shall prosper.
Happy are they who have not walked in the counsel of the wicked; nor lingered in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seats of the scornful!
4. it is not so with the wicked; they are like chaff which the wind blows away.
5. Therefore the wicked shall not stand upright when judgment comes, nor the sinner in the council of the righteous.
6. For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked is doomed.
Happy are they who have not walked in the counsel of the wicked; nor lingered in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seats of the scornful!
