But his delight is in the law of Jehovah;
And on his law doth he meditate day and night.
And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water,
That bringeth forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also doth not wither;
And [a]whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
The wicked are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

  1. Psalm 1:3 Or, in whatsoever he doeth he shall prosper

but whose delight(A) is in the law of the Lord,(B)
    and who meditates(C) on his law day and night.
That person is like a tree(D) planted by streams(E) of water,(F)
    which yields its fruit(G) in season
and whose leaf(H) does not wither—
    whatever they do prospers.(I)

Not so the wicked!
    They are like chaff(J)
    that the wind blows away.
