Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or set foot on the path of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers.
1Blessed is the man who hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the chair of pestilence.
2But his delight is in the Law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night.
2But his will is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he shall meditate day and night.
3He is like a tree planted by streams of water, yielding its fruit in season, whose leaf does not wither, and who prospers in all he does.
3And he shall be like a tree which is planted near the running waters, which shall bring forth its fruit, in due season. And his leaf shall not fall off: and all whatsoever he shall do shall prosper.
4Not so the wicked! For they are like chaff driven off by the wind.
4Not so the wicked, not so: but like the dust, which the wind driveth from the face of the earth.
5Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
5Therefore the wicked shall not rise again in judgment: nor sinners in the council of the just.
6For the LORD guards the path of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
6For the Lord knoweth the way of the just: and the way of the wicked shall perish.
