Psalms 1
1
1O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;
2But — in the law of Jehovah [is] his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:
3And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.
4Not so the wicked: But — as chaff that wind driveth away!
5Therefore the wicked rise not in judgment, Nor sinners in the company of the righteous,
6For Jehovah is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!

Psalms 1
1
Book 1
Two Ways to Live
1Happy are those who don’t listen to the wicked,
who don’t go where sinners go,
who don’t do what evil people do.
2They love the Lord’s teachings,
and they think about those teachings day and night.
3They are strong, like a tree planted by a river.
The tree produces fruit in season,
and its leaves don’t die.
Everything they do will succeed.
4But wicked people are not like that.
They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
5So the wicked will not escape God’s punishment.
Sinners will not worship with God’s people.
6This is because the Lord takes care of his people,
but the wicked will be destroyed.
