Psalms 1

BOOK ONE
Psalms 1–41
1Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor stands in the path of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2#Ps 63:1; 84:2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and in His law he meditates day and night.
3#Ps 79:10; 80:5 He will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
that brings forth its fruit in its season;
its leaf will not wither,
and whatever he does will prosper.
4#Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8 The ungodly are not so,
but are like the chaff
which the wind drives away.
5#Ps 42:11; 43:5 Therefore the ungodly will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6#2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the ungodly will perish.

Psalms 1–41
Psalm 1
1Blessed 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,
2but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,
and who meditates on his law day and night.
3That 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.
4Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.
5Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
