Psalms:1-2
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 .
*
But his delight is in the law of the LORD ;
and in his law doth he meditate day and night .
*
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 .
*
The ungodly are not so :
but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away .
*
Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment ,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous .
*
For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous :
but the way of the ungodly shall perish .
*
Why do the heathen rage ,
and the people imagine a vain thing ?
*
The kings of the earth set themselves ,
and the rulers take counsel together ,
against the LORD ,
and against his anointed ,
saying ,
*
Let us break their bands asunder ,
and cast away their cords from us .
*
He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh :
the Lord shall have them in derision .
*
Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath ,
and vex them in his sore displeasure .
*
Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion .
*
I will declare the decree :
the LORD hath said unto me ,
Thou art my Son ;
this day have I begotten thee .
*
Ask of me ,
and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance ,
and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession .
*
Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron ;
thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter '
s vessel .
*
Be wise now therefore ,
O ye kings :
be instructed ,
ye judges of the earth .
*
Serve the LORD with fear ,
and rejoice with trembling .
*
Kiss the Son ,
lest he be angry ,
and ye perish from the way ,
when his wrath is kindled but a little .
Blessed are all they that put their trust in him .
*
LORD ,
how are they increased that trouble me !
many are they that rise up against me .
