Would you rather watch this Psalm? Click the play button below!

1

Happy are those

who do not follow the advice of the wicked,

or take the path that sinners tread,

or sit in the seat of scoffers;

2

but their delight is in the law of the Lord,

and on his law they meditate day and night.

3

They are like trees

planted by streams of water,

which yield their fruit in its season,

and their leaves do not wither.

In all that they do, they prosper.

4

The wicked are not so,

but are like chaff that the wind drives away.

5

Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;

6

for the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,

but the way of the wicked will perish.
