Psalm 1

Common English Bible CEB

1 The truly happy person doesn't follow wicked advice, doesn't stand on the road of sinners, and doesn't sit with the disrespectful.

2 Instead of doing those things, these persons love the LORD's Instruction, and they recite God's Instruction day and night!

3 They are like a tree replanted by streams of water, which bears fruit at just the right time and whose leaves don't fade. Whatever they do succeeds.

4 That's not true for the wicked! They are like dust that the wind blows away.

5 And that's why the wicked will have no standing in the court of justice— neither will sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 The LORD is intimately acquainted with the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked is destroyed.

English Standard Version ESV

1 Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers;

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 that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.

4 The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;

6 for the Lord knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
