The Way of the Righteous and the Wicked
Blessed is the man
who awalks not in bthe counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in cthe way of sinners,
nor dsits in ethe seat of fscoffers;
2 but his adelight is in the law of the Lord,
and on his blaw he meditates day and night.
3 He is like aa tree
planted by bstreams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its cleaf does not wither.
dIn all that he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so,
but are like achaff that the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the wicked awill not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in bthe congregation of the righteous;
6 for the Lord aknows bthe way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
