              1 Blessed  is the man  that walketh   not in the counsel  of the ungodly,  nor standeth   in the way  of sinners,  nor sitteth   in the seat  of the scornful  .
            
            
                1
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,            
            
              2 But his delight  is in the law  of the LORD;  and in his law  doth he meditate   day  and night. 
            
            
                2
but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night.            
            
              3 And he shall be like a tree  planted   by the rivers  of water,  that bringeth forth   his fruit  in his season;  his leaf  also shall not wither  ; and whatsoever he doeth   shall prosper  .
            
            
                3
That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.            
            
              4 The ungodly  are not so: but are like the chaff  which the wind  driveth away  .
            
            
                4
Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.            
            
              5 Therefore the ungodly  shall not stand   in the judgment,  nor sinners  in the congregation  of the righteous. 
            
            
                5
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.            
            
              6 For the LORD  knoweth   the way  of the righteous:  but the way  of the ungodly  shall perish  .
            
            
                6
For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
