THAT MAN HATH PERFECT BLESSEDNESS

That man hath perfect blessedness

who walketh not astray

in counsel of ungodly men,

nor stands in sinners‟ way,




nor sitteth in the scorner‟s chair:

but placeth his delight

upon God‟s law, and meditates

on His law day and night.




He shall be like a tree that grows

near planted by a river,

which in his season yields his fruit,

and his leaf fadeth never:




and all he doth shall prosper well.

The wicked are not so;

but like they are unto the chaff,

which wind drives to and fro.




In judgement therefore shall not stand

such as ungodly are;

nor in the assembly of the just

shall wicked men appear.




For why? The way of godly men

unto the Lord is known:

whereas the way of wicked men

shall quite be overthrown
