{{Text|English| 1. The man is blest that hath not bent, to wicked rede his eare: nor led his life as sinners doe, nor sate in scorners chaire: But in the law of God the Lord doth set his whole delight: and in that law doth exercise himselfe both day and night.
2. He shall be like the tree that growes fast by the riuers side, Which bringeth forth most pleasant fruit in her due time and tide.
3. Whose leafe shall neuer fade nor fall but flourish still and stand: Euen so all things shall prosper well that this man takes in hand.
4. So shall not the vngodly men, they shall be nothing so: But as the dust which from the earth the windes driue too and fro.
5. Therefore shall not the wicked men in iudgement stand vpright: Nor yet the sinners with the iust shall come in place or sight.
6. For why? the way of Godly men vnto the Lord is knowne, and eke the way of wicked men shall quite be ouerthrowne. </poem>
