1 Happy is the one who has not walked in the advice of the wicked, nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seat of scoffers.
2 But his delight is in the Torah of Adonai, and on His Torah he meditates day and night.
3 He will be like a planted tree over streams of water, producing its fruit during its season. Its leaf never droops— but in all he does, he succeeds.
4 The wicked are not so. For they are like chaff that the wind blows away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand during the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For Adonai knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.
