Psalm 1 (Arlington CM)

1 That man hath perfect blessedness,who walketh not astrayIn counsel of ungodly men,nor stands in sinners’ way,Nor sitteth in the scorner’s chair:2 But placeth his delightUpon God’s law, and meditateson his law day and night.3 He shall be like a tree that growsnear planted by a river,Which in his season yields his fruit,and his leaf fadeth never:And all he doth shall prosper well4 The wicked are not so;But like they are unto the chaff,which wind drives to and fro.5 In judgment therefore shall not standsuch as ungodly are;Nor in th’ assembly of the justshall wicked men appear.6 For why? the way of godly menunto the Lord is known:Whereas the way of wicked menshall quite be overthrown.
