Psalms 1

BOOK 1
1Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stand on the path of sinners,
nor sit in the seat of scoffers;
2 but his delight is in the LORD’s#1:2 When rendered in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, “Lord” or “GOD” is the translation of God’s Proper Name (Hebrew “יהוה”, usually pronounced Yahweh). law.
On his law he meditates day and night.
3 He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water,
that produces its fruit in its season,
whose leaf also does not wither.
Whatever he does shall prosper.
4 The wicked are not so,
but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgement,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked shall perish.

Tehillim (Psa) 1

Book I: Psalms 1–41
1How blessed are those
who reject the advice of the wicked,
don’t stand on the way of sinners
or sit where scoffers sit!
2Their delight
is in Adonai’s Torah;
on his Torah they meditate
day and night.
3They are like trees planted by streams —
they bear their fruit in season,
their leaves never wither,
everything they do succeeds.
4Not so the wicked,
who are like chaff driven by the wind.
5For this reason the wicked
won’t stand up to the judgment,
nor will sinners
at the gathering of the righteous.
6For Adonai watches over
the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked
is doomed.
