Lo, their prosperity is not in their hand: The counsel of the wicked is far from me.
Who goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, And walketh with wicked men?
Their sorrows shall be multiplied that give gifts for another (god): Their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, Nor take their names upon my lips.
I have not sat with men of falsehood; Neither will I go in with dissemblers.
I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And will not sit with the wicked.
Enter not into the path of the wicked, And walk not in the way of evil men.
The righteous shall never be removed; But the wicked shall not dwell in the land.
The proud and haughty man, scoffer is his name; He worketh in the arrogance of pride.
I sat not in the assembly of them that make merry, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand; for thou hast filled me with indignation.
