Psalms 1

World English Bible British Edition · Berean Standard Bible

1:1

Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked,

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or set foot on the path of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers.

1:2

but his delight is in the LORD’s law.

But his delight is in the Law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night.

1:3

He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water,

He is like a tree planted by streams of water, yielding its fruit in season, whose leaf does not wither, and who prospers in all he does.

1:4

The wicked are not so,

Not so the wicked! For they are like chaff driven off by the wind.

1:5

Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgement,

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

1:6

For the LORD knows the way of the righteous,

For the LORD guards the path of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
