BOOK ONE
Psalms 1–41
The Way of the Righteous and the End of the Ungodly
Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
-
For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
-
Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.
-
Good and upright is the Lord; Therefore He teaches sinners in the way.
-
Who is the man that fears the Lord? Him shall He teach in the way He chooses.
-
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.
-
This is the way of those who are foolish, And of their posterity who approve their sayings. Selah
-
Why have You broken down her hedges, So that all who pass by the way pluck her fruit?
-
All who pass by the way plunder him; He is a reproach to his neighbors.
-
He weakened my strength in the way; He shortened my days.

Meditations on the Excellencies of the Word of God
א ALEPH
Blessed are the undefiled in the way, Who walk in the law of the Lord!
-
I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies, As much as in all riches.
-
Make me understand the way of Your precepts; So shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.
-
Remove from me the way of lying, And grant me Your law graciously.
-
I have chosen the way of truth; Your judgments I have laid before me.
-
ה HE
Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes, And I shall keep it to the end.
-
And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting.
-
When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, Then You knew my path. In the way in which I walk They have secretly set a snare for me.
-
Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, For in You do I trust; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, For I lift up my soul to You.
-
The Lord watches over the strangers; He relieves the fatherless and widow; But the way of the wicked He turns upside down.
