The Latin Vulgate VUL
English Standard Version ESV
1 beatus vir qui non abiit in consilio impiorum et in via peccatorum non stetit et in cathedra pestilentiae non sedit
1
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2 sed in lege Domini voluntas eius et in lege eius meditabitur die ac nocte
2
but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 et erit tamquam lignum quod plantatum est secus decursus aquarum quod fructum suum dabit in tempore suo et folium eius non defluet et omnia quaecumque faciet prosperabuntur
3
He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.
4 non sic impii %non sic; sed tamquam pulvis quem proicit ventus %a facie terrae;
4
The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away.
5 ideo non resurgent impii in iudicio neque peccatores in consilio iustorum
5
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
6 quoniam novit Dominus viam iustorum et iter impiorum peribit
6
for the Lord knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
