Psalm 1
The Two Ways
1How happy is the one who does not
walk in the advice of the wicked
or stand in the pathway with sinners
or sit in the company of mockers!#Ps 26:4–5; Pr 4:14–15
2Instead, his delight is in the Lord’s instruction,
and he meditates on it day and night.#Jos 1:8; Ps 40:8; 119:14–16
3He is like a tree planted beside flowing streams#1:3 Or beside irrigation channels
that bears its fruit in its season,#Rv 22:2
and its leaf does not wither.#Ps 92:12–14; Jr 17:8
Whatever he does prospers.#Dt 5:33
4The wicked are not like this;
instead, they are like chaff that the wind blows away.#Jb 21:18; Ps 35:5; Hs 13:3
5Therefore the wicked will not stand up in the judgment,#Ps 5:5; 9:16; 76:7; Jr 25:31
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,#Jb 34:21; Ps 37:18; Nah 1:7; Jn 10:14; 2Tm 2:19
but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.#Pr 21:12; Jn 3:16

Psalms 1
1
The Ways of the Righteous and the Wicked
1Blessed is the man who does not walk in the advice of the wicked;
nor does he stand in the way of sinners;
nor does he sit in the assembly of mockers.
2Instead, in the law of Yahweh is his delight,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
3And so, he is like a tree planted by streams of water
that gives its fruit in its season;
its leaf also does not wither.
Therefore all that he does prospers.
4Not so the wicked.
Instead, they are like the chaff that the wind scatters.
5Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
6for Yahweh knows the way of the righteous,#Plural
but the way of the wicked will perish.
