Commentary on Psalms - Volume 5

1Blessed is the man who walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly; And in the way of sinners doth not stand; And in the seat of scoffers doth not sit:

2But in the law of the Lord is his delight; And in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3He shall be like a tree planted near rivers of waters, Which shall yield its fruit in its season, And whose leaf shall not fade; And all that he doeth shall prosper.

4Not so the ungodly: But they are like the chaff, which scatter doth the wind.

5Therefore shall not stand the ungodly in the judgment, Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6For know doth Jehovah the way of the righteous; But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
