1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:

1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, and standeth not in the way of sinners, and sitteth not in the seat of scorners;

1Blessed is the man who hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the chair of pestilence:

1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:

2But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night.

2 But his delight is in Jehovah's law, and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

2But his will is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he shall meditate day and night.

2But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night.

3And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

3 And he [is] as a tree planted by brooks of water, which giveth its fruit in its season, and whose leaf fadeth not; and all that he doeth prospereth.

3And he shall be like a tree which is planted near the running waters, which shall bring forth its fruit, in due season. And his leaf shall not fall off: and all whatsoever he shall do shall prosper.

3And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

4The wicked are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

4 The wicked are not so; but are as the chaff which the wind driveth away.

4Not so the wicked, not so: but like the dust, which the wind driveth from the face of the earth.

4The wicked are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

5Therefore the wicked shall not rise again in judgment: nor sinners in the council of the just.

5Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish.

6 For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.

6For the Lord knoweth the way of the just: and the way of the wicked shall perish.

6For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish.
