Psalms:1-2
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked ,
nor stands in the way of sinners ,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers ;
*
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 ,
that yields its fruit in its season ,
and its leaf does not wither .
In all that he does ,
he prospers .
*
The wicked are not so ,
but are like chaff which the wind drives away .
*
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment ,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous ;
*
for the LORD knows the way of the righteous ,
but the way of the wicked will perish .
*
Why do the nations conspire ,
and the peoples plot in vain ?
*
The kings of the earth set themselves ,
and the rulers take counsel together ,
against the LORD and his anointed ,
saying ,
* "
Let us burst their bonds asunder ,
and cast their cords from us ."
*
He who sits in the heavens laughs ;
the LORD has them in derision .
*
Then he will speak to them in his wrath ,
and terrify them in his fury ,
saying ,
* "
I have set my king on Zion ,
my holy hill ."
*
I will tell of the decree of the LORD :
He said to me , "
You are my son ,
today I have begotten you .
*
Ask of me ,
and I will make the nations your heritage ,
and the ends of the earth your possession .
*
You shall break them with a rod of iron ,
and dash them in pieces like a potter '
s vessel ."
*
Now therefore ,
O kings ,
be wise ;
be warned ,
O rulers of the earth .
*
Serve the LORD with fear ,
with trembling
*
kiss his feet ,
lest he be angry ,
and you perish in the way ;
for his wrath is quickly kindled .
Blessed are all who take refuge in him .
*
A Psalm of David ,
when he fled from Absalom his son .
