Psalms 1

1Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood inthe way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of evil men.
2But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in his law will he meditate dayand night.
3And he shall be as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, which shall yield itsfruit in its season, and its leaf shall not fall off; and whatever he shall do shall be prospered.
4Not so the ungodly; —not so: but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters awayfrom the face of the earth.
5Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgment, nor sinners in the counsel ofthe just.
6For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
