Psalms 1:2

← Psalms 1:1	Psalms 1:2 (KJV)	Psalms 1:3 →
Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.	But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.	And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
