King David playing the harp (Domenico Zampieri 1581-1641)

King David is traditionally credited with writing many of the Psalms in the Bible.
Book of Psalms
Psalm 1[1]
A contrast between the righteous and the wicked.

1 Blessed 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[2].

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And 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[3].

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous[4]: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
