1  Blessed is the man¹

who ^awalks not in ^bthe counsel of the wicked,

nor stands in ^cthe way of sinners,

nor ^dsits in ^ethe seat of ^fscoffers;

2  but his ^gdelight is in the law² of the Lord,

and on his ^hlaw he meditates day and night.

3  He is like ⁱa tree

planted by ^jstreams of water

that yields its fruit in its season,

and its ^kleaf does not wither.

^lIn all that he does, he prospers.

8  ^tI have ^uset the Lord always before me;

because he is at my ^vright hand, I shall not be ^wshaken.

14  Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart

be acceptable in your sight,

O Lord, my ^jrock and my ^kredeemer.

34  May my ^pmeditation be pleasing to him,

for I rejoice in the Lord.
