Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked...

Blessed is the man who does not

walk in the counsel of the wicked

or stand in the way of sinners

or sit in the seat of mockers.

But his delight is in the law of the Lord,

and on his law he meditates day and night.

He is like a tree planted

by streams of water,

which yields its fruit in season

and whose leaf does not wither.

Whatever he does prosper.

~ Psalm 1 : 1 - 3 ~
