[ Read](/kjv/psalms/1)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/1)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/1) Audio

 1 Blessed *is* the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.*

 2 But his delight *is* in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.*

 4 The ungodly *are* not so: but *are* like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

 6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
 
[Job 42](/study/job/42) [Psalms 2](/study/psalms/2)

**TITLE, Psalms.** See App-63 and the Structures on pp. 720, 721. Compare [Luke 20:42](/kjv/luke/20/42) , [Luke 24:44](/kjv/luke/24/44) , [Acts 1:20](/kjv/acts/1/20) . 

**BLESSED** = How Happy. The first Psalm begins thus and Psalm 2 ends thus. So does the last Psalm of Book I: [Psalms 41:1](/kjv/psalms/41/1) ; [Psalms 41:13](/kjv/psalms/41/13) ). Figure of speech *Antiptosis* ( App-6 ). Compare [Jeremiah 17:7](/kjv/jeremiah/17/7) , [Jeremiah 17:8](/kjv/jeremiah/17/8) . See App-63 . for the Beatitudes in the Psalms. 

**man.** Hebrew ' *ish* . Put by Figure of speech *Synecdoche* (of Species), App-6 , for all of both sexes. 

**walketh, &c:** i.e. who never did walk . . . stand . . . sit. Figure of speech *Anabasis* , three triplets: walketh counsel ungodly = continue in. standeth way sinners = carry out. sitteth seat scornful = settle down. 

**ungodly** = lawless. Hebrew. *rasha'.* App-44 . 

**sinners.** Hebrew. *chata'.* 

**scornful** = scoffers. Hebrew. *luz.*
