1 Blessed is the onewho does not walk in step with the wickedor stand in the way that sinners takeor sit in the company of mockers,
2 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,and who meditates on his law day and night.
3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,which yields its fruit in seasonand whose leaf does not wither –whatever they do prospers.
4 Not so the wicked!They are like chaffthat the wind blows away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
