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.
