1μακαριοϲ ανηρ οϲ ουκ επορευθη εν βουλη αϲεβων και εν οδω αμαρτωλων ουκ εϲτη και επι καθεδραν λοιμων ουκ εκαθιϲε 2αλλ η εν τω νομω κυ το θελημα αυτου και εν τω νομω αυτου μελετηϲει ημεραϲ και νυκτοϲ 3και εϲται ωϲ το ξυλον το πεφυτευμενον παρα ταϲ διεξοδουϲ των ϋδατων ο τον καρπον αυτου δωϲει εν καιρω αυτου και το φυλλον αυτου ουκ απορρυηϲεται και παντα οϲα αν ποιη κατευοδωθηϲεται 4ουχ ουτωϲ οι αϲεβειϲ ουχ ουτωϲ αλλ η ωϲ ο χνουϲ ον εκριπτει ο ανεμοϲ απο προϲωπου τηϲ γηϲ 5δια τουτο ουκ αναϲτηϲονται οι αϲεβειϲ εν κριϲει ουδε αμαρτωλοι εν βουλη δικαιων
1Blessed 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. 2But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3And 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. 4The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. 5Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6οτι γινωϲκει κϲ οδον δικαιων και οδοϲ αϲεβων απολειται
6For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
