Psalms 1-41 |
Psalm 1
Blessed are those who do not follow the counsel of the wicked, nor go the way of sinners, nor sit in company with scoffers.
2 Rather the law of the Lord is their joy; God's law they exercise 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 But not the wicked! They are like chaff driven by the wind.
5 Therefore the wicked will not survive judgment, nor will sinners in the assembly of the just.
6 The Lord knows the way of the just, but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.
