The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
All Commentaries on Psalms 1:4 Go To Psalms 1
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Not so. Hebrew, "but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. "(Haydock)
They are inconstant (St. Jerome) in the good resolutions which they sometimes form. (Haydock) (Job xxi. 18.)
The good corn remains, but they are tossed about by every wind, and their memory perishes with all their children and effects. (Calmet)
They yield to the slightest temptation. (Worthington)
