PSALM 1

Psalm 1

1

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way 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, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers. 4

Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. 5

Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. 6

For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish
