BOOK ONE

Psalms 1–41

The Way of the Righteous and the End of the Ungodly

Blessed (A)is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the [a]ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
(B)Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
But (C)his delight is in the law of the Lord,
(D)And in His law he [b]meditates day and night.
He shall be like a tree
(E)Planted by the [c]rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall (F)prosper.

Paul’s Valedictory

For (A)I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of (B)my departure is at hand. (C)I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me (D)the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous (E)Judge, will give to me (F)on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing.
