Psalm 1:1-3

Book One

The Way of the Righteous and the Wicked

1:1   Blessed is the man¹
    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 law² 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.
