1 Blessed is the man^[a]
    who ^(A)walks not in ^(B)the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in ^(C)the way of sinners,
    nor ^(D)sits in ^(E)the seat of ^(F)scoffers;
² but his ^(G)delight is in the law^[b] of the Lord,
    and on his ^(H)law he meditates day and night.

⁶ Surely^[a] goodness and mercy^[b] shall follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I shall ^(A)dwell^[c] in the house of the Lord
    ^(B)forever.^[d]
