He will be like (A)a tree planted by [a]streams of water,
Which yields its fruit in its season,
And its [b]leaf does not wither;
And [c]in whatever he does, (B)he prospers.

The wicked are not so,
But they are like (C)chaff which the wind blows away.
Therefore (D)the wicked will not stand in the (E)judgment,
Nor sinners in (F)the assembly of the righteous.
For the Lord [d](G)knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of (H)the wicked will perish.
