Holy Scripture
Psalms 1:4
A church father on this verse
“The ungodly have no possible hope of having the image of the happy tree applied to them. The only lot that awaits them is one of wandering and winnowing, crushing, dispersion and unrest; shaken out of the solid framework of their bodily condition, they must be swept away to punishment in dust, a plaything of the wind.…”

Original
4Not so the ungodly—not so: But rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.

In context
2But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; And in his law will he meditate day and night.
3And he shall be as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, Which shall yield its fruit in its season, And its leaf shall not fall off; And whatsoever he shall do shall be prospered.
— Psalms 1:4 —
5Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgment, Nor sinners in the counsel of the just.
6For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
