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;
1Happy is the man who does not go in the company of sinners, or take his place in the way of evil-doers, or in the seat of those who do not give honour to the Lord.
1O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;
2 But his delight is in Jehovah's law, and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
2But whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and whose mind is on his law day and night.
2But--in the law of Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:
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.
3He will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, which gives its fruit at the right time, whose leaves will ever be green; and he will do well in all his undertakings.
3And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.
4 The wicked are not so; but are as the chaff which the wind driveth away.
4The evil-doers are not so; but are like the dust from the grain, which the wind takes away.
4Not so the wicked: But--as chaff that wind driveth away!
5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
5For this cause there will be no mercy for sinners when they are judged, and the evil-doers will have no place among the upright,
5Therefore the wicked rise not in judgment, Nor sinners in the company of the righteous,
