Psalms 1

1 Blessed is the person who does not follow the advice of wicked people, take the path of sinners, or join the company of mockers.

1 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,

2 Rather, he delights in the teachings of the LORD and reflects on his teachings day and night.

2 but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night.

3 He is like a tree planted beside streams-- a tree that produces fruit in season and whose leaves do not wither. He succeeds in everything he does.

3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.

4 Wicked people are not like that. Instead, they are like husks that the wind blows away.

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

5 That is why wicked people will not be able to stand in the judgment and sinners will not be able to stand where righteous people gather.

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

6 The LORD knows the way of righteous people, but the way of wicked people will end.

6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
