Psalm 1 (Lyrics)

V. 
O greatly blessed is the man,
Who walketh not astray
In counsel of ungodly men,
Nor stands in the sinner's way.

V. 2
Nor sitteth in the scorner's chair,
But placeth his delight
Upon God's law and meditates
On His law day and night.

V. 3
He shall be like a tree that grows,
Set by the waterside
Which in its season yields its fruit,
And green its leaves abide.

V. 4
And all he does shall prosper well.
The wicked are not so
But are like chaff which by the wind
Is driven to and fro.

V. 5
In judgment therefore shall not stand
Such as ungodly are
Nor in th'assembly of the just
Shall wicked men appear.

V. 6
Because the way of godly men
Is to Jehovah known
Whereas the way of wicked men
Shall be quite overthrown.
