Bay Psalm Book: Psalm 1

PSALMES I

1 O Blessed man, that in th’ advice of wicked doeth not walk: nor stand in sinners way, nor sit in chayre of scornfull folk.

2 But in the law of Iehovah, is his longing delight: Aud in his law doth meditate, By day and eke by night.

3 And he shall be like to a tree planted by water-rivers: That in his season yields his fruit, And his leafe never withers.

4 And all he doth, shall prosper well, The wicked are no so: But they are like vnto the chaffe, Which winde drives to and fro.

5 Therefore shall not ungodly men, Rise to stand in the doome, Nor shall the sinners with the just, In their assemblie come.

6 For of the righteous men, the Lord Acknowledgeth the way: but the way of vngodly men, shall vtterly decay.
