Psalms 1

 

Psalms 1

 

¹ Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,

 

² but whose delight is in the law of the LORD,

and who meditates on his law day and night.

 

³ That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.

 

⁴ Not so the wicked! They are like chaff

that the wind blows away.

 

⁵ Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

 

⁶ For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
