Chap. 1
1 Blessed [is] the man who hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked, and hath not stood in the way of sinners, and hath not sat in the seat of scorners.
2 But in the law of Jehovah [is] his delight, and in his law doth he meditate by day and by night.
3 And he is as a tree planted by the waterbrooks, which yieldeth its fruit in its season, and its leaf fadeth not; and all that he doeth prospereth.
4 The wicked [are] not so, but [are] like the chaff which the wind scattereth.
5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked shall perish.
