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.

BOOK ONE: Psalms 1—41
The Way of the Righteous and the End of the Ungodly
1Blessed #Prov. 4:14is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
#Ps. 26:4, 5; Jer. 15:17Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2But #Ps. 119:14, 16, 35his delight is in the law of the Lord,
#(Josh. 1:8)And in His law he meditates day and night.
3He shall be like a tree
#(Ps. 92:12–14); Jer. 17:8; Ezek. 19:10Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall #Gen. 39:2, 3, 23; Ps. 128:2prosper.
4The ungodly are not so,
But are #Job 21:18; Ps. 35:5; Is. 17:13like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6For #Ps. 37:18; (Nah. 1:7; John 10:14; 2 Tim. 2:19)the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
