O greatly blessed is the man Who walketh not astray
In counsel fo ungodly men, Nor stands in sinners' way
Nor sitteth in the scorner's chair, But placeth his delight
Upon GOD's law, and meditates On His law day and night.
He shall be like a tree that grows Set by the waterside,
Which in its season yields its fruit, And green it leaves abide;
And all he does shall prosper well. The wicked are not so,
But are like chaff which by the wind Is driven to and fro.
In judgment therefore shall not stand Such as und=godly are,
Nor in th'assembly of the just Shall wicked men appear.
Because the way of godly men Is to Jehovah known;
Whereas the way of wicked men Shall quite be overthrown.
