That Man Hath Perfect Blessedness

1.That man hath perfect blessedness
who walketh not astray
In counsel of ungodly men,
nor stands in sinners' way,

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

3.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:

4.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.

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

6.For why? the way of godly men
unto the Lord is known:
Whereas the way of wicked men
shall quite be overthrown.
