'Blessed is the Man' in the Bible
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:
A Psalm of David. A Contemplation. Blessed is the man whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
Blessed is the man unto whom Jehovah imputeth not iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no guile.
Oh taste and see that Jehovah is good: Blessed is the man that taketh refuge in him.
Blessed is the man that maketh Jehovah his trust, And respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee , That he may dwell in thy courts: We shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, Thy holy temple.
Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; In whose heart are the highways to Zion .
O Jehovah of hosts, Blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Jehovah, And teachest out of thy law;
Praise ye Jehovah. Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, That delighteth greatly in his commandments.
How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them! He will not be ashamed as they confront their enemies at the city gate. A Song of Ascents
