Psalms 1
1
Two Ways to Live
1Happy is the person who doesn’t listen to the wicked.
He doesn’t go where sinners go.
He doesn’t do what bad people do.
2He loves the Lord’s teachings.
He thinks about those teachings day and night.
3He is strong, like a tree planted by a river.
It produces fruit in season.
Its leaves don’t die.
Everything he does will succeed.
4But wicked people are not like that.
They are like useless chaff
that the wind blows away.
5So the wicked will not escape God’s punishment.
Sinners will not worship God with good people.
6This is because the Lord protects good people.
But the wicked will be destroyed.

Psalms 1
1
BOOK I.
1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor standeth in the way of sinners,
Nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful
2But his delight is in the law of the LORD;
And in his law doth he meditate day and night
3And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water,
That bringeth forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also doth not wither;
And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4The wicked are not so;
But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away
5Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgement,
Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous
6For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous:
But the way of the wicked shall perish.
