Blessed Is The Man
 
 How blessed is the man who does not
walk in the counsel of the wicked, 
nor stand in the path of sinners, 
nor sit in the seat of scoffers! 
But his delight is in the law of the LORD, 
and in His law he meditates day and night. 
He will be like a tree 
firmly planted by streams of water, 
which yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither; 
and in whatever he does, he prospers. 
The wicked are not so, but they are like chaff
which the wind drives away. 
Therefore the wicked will not stand
in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly 
of the righteous. For the LORD knows 
the way of the righteous, 
But the way of the wicked will perish. 
Psalm 1
 
 
How blessed are the people 
who know the joyful sound!
O LORD, they walk in 
the light of Your countenance. 
In Your name they rejoice all the day,
and by Your righteousness they are exalted.
 Psalm 89: 15, 16
 
Blessed are they whose way is blameless,
who walk in the law of the Lord.
How blessed are those who observe His testimonies,
who seek Him with all their heart.
Psalm 119: 12
 
O taste and see that the LORD is good;
how blessed is the man 
who takes refuge in Him!
Psalm 34: 8
O LORD of hosts,
how blessed is the man
who trusts in You.
 Psalm 84: 12
 
Blessed is the man 
who trusts in the Lord,
and whose trust is in the Lord.
For he will be like a tree 
planted by the water,
that extends its roots by a stream
and will not fear 
when the heat comes.
But its leaves will be green,
and it will not be anxious 
in a year of drought,
nor cease to bear fruit.
 Jeremiah 17: 7
