Psalm 1
The two ways
Blessedness belongs to those who delight in God’s law rather than the counsel of the wicked.
Excerpt
Blessed 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: but his will is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he shall meditate day and night.
