Psalms Chapter 1 תְּהִלִּים

א  אַשְׁרֵי הָאִישׁ--   אֲשֶׁר לֹא הָלַךְ, בַּעֲצַת רְשָׁעִים;
וּבְדֶרֶךְ חַטָּאִים, לֹא עָמָד,   וּבְמוֹשַׁב לֵצִים, לֹא יָשָׁב.1 Happy is the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked, {N}
nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seat of the scornful.
ב  כִּי אִם בְּתוֹרַת יְהוָה, חֶפְצוֹ;   וּבְתוֹרָתוֹ יֶהְגֶּה, יוֹמָם וָלָיְלָה.2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law doth he meditate day and night.
ג  וְהָיָה--   כְּעֵץ, שָׁתוּל עַל-פַּלְגֵי-מָיִם:
אֲשֶׁר פִּרְיוֹ, יִתֵּן בְּעִתּוֹ--וְעָלֵהוּ לֹא-יִבּוֹל;   וְכֹל אֲשֶׁר-יַעֲשֶׂה יַצְלִיחַ.3 And he shall be like a tree planted by streams of water, {N}
that bringeth forth its fruit in its season, and whose leaf doth not wither; and in whatsoever he doeth he shall prosper.
ד  לֹא-כֵן הָרְשָׁעִים:   כִּי אִם-כַּמֹּץ, אֲשֶׁר-תִּדְּפֶנּוּ רוּחַ.4 Not so the wicked; but they are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
ה  עַל-כֵּן, לֹא-יָקֻמוּ רְשָׁעִים--בַּמִּשְׁפָּט;   וְחַטָּאִים, בַּעֲדַת צַדִּיקִים.5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
ו  כִּי-יוֹדֵעַ יְהוָה, דֶּרֶךְ צַדִּיקִים;   וְדֶרֶךְ רְשָׁעִים תֹּאבֵד.6 For the LORD regardeth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked shall perish. {P}
