Psa.|1:1|-||1a|Blessed is the manWho does not walkIn the counsel of the wicked,Nor stand on the path of sinners,Nor |b|sit in the seat of mockers;
Psa.|1:2|-|Rather his |a|delight is in the |1|law of Jehovah,And in His law he |b|meditates by day and by night.Psa.|1:3|-|And he will be like a |a|treeTransplanted beside streams of water,Which yields its fruit in its season,And whose foliage does not wither;And everything he does |1|prospers.
Psa.|1:4|-|The wicked are not so,But are like |a|chaff,Which the wind drives away.
Psa.|1:5|-|Therefore the wicked will not |a|stand in the judgment;Nor the sinners, in the assembly of the righteous.Psa.|1:6|-|For Jehovah |a|knows the way of the righteous,But the way of the wicked will perish.
