Salmi 1

1

¶ Book 1(Psalms 1-41) How blessed is the one who does not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand in the pathway with sinners, or sit in the assembly of scoffers!

2

Instead he finds pleasure in obeying the LORD’s commands; he meditates on his commands day and night.

3

He is like a tree planted by flowing streams; it yields its fruit at the proper time, and its leaves never fall off. He succeeds in everything he attempts.

4

Not so with the wicked! Instead they are like wind-driven chaff.

5

For this reason the wicked cannot withstand judgment, nor can sinners join the assembly of the godly.

6

Certainly the LORD guards the way of the godly, but the way of the wicked ends in destruction.
