<Psalms 1

[1] Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or set foot on the path of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers.

[2] But his delight is in the Law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night.

[3] He is like a tree planted by streams of water, yielding its fruit in season, whose leaf does not wither, and who prospers in all he does.

[4] Not so the wicked! For they are like chaff driven off by the wind.

[5] Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

[6] For the LORD guards the path of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
