Priljubljene svetopisemske vrstice iz Psalms of David 1

Deli

HOW blest is he who ne’er consents By ill advice to walk; Nor stands in sinners’ ways, nor sits Where men profanely talk. But makes the perfect law of God His business and delight; Devoutly reads therein by day, And meditates by night.

Like some fair tree, which, fed by streams, With timely fruit does bend, He still shall flourish, and success All his designs attend.

For God approves the just man’s ways, To happiness they tend; But sinners, and the paths they tread, Shall both in ruin end.
