< Psalms 1 >
1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the advice of the wicked, or stand in the pathway with sinners, or sit in the assembly of mockers.
2 But his delight is in the law of Yahweh, and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaves do not wither; whatever he does will prosper.
4 The wicked are not so, but are instead like the chaff that the wind drives away.
5 So the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For Yahweh approves of the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
