The Righteous and the Ungodly

11 How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked , Nor stand in the [1] path of sinners , Nor sit in the seat of scoffers ! 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord , And in His law he meditates day and night . 3 He will be like a tree firmly planted by [2]streams of water , Which yields its fruit in its season And its [3]leaf does not wither ; And [4]in whatever e he does , he prospers .

4 The wicked are not so , But they are like chaff which the wind drives away . 5 Therefore e the wicked will not stand in the judgment , Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous . 6 For the Lord [5] knows the way of the righteous , But the way of the wicked will perish .
