CHAPTER 1
Blessed
is the man
who
does not
walk
in the counsel
of the wicked,
or
set foot
on the path
of sinners,
or
sit
in the seat
of mockers.
He is
like a tree
planted
by
streams
of water,
yielding
its fruit
in season,
whose leaf
does not
wither,
and
who prospers
in all he does.
Therefore
the wicked
will not
stand
in the judgment,
nor sinners
in the assembly
of the righteous.
