Psalm 1:1- (NIV)

1 Blessed is the one
    who does not walk in step with the wicked
or stand in the way that sinners take
    or sit in the company of mockers,

2 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,
    and who meditates on his law day and night.

3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
    which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither—
    whatever they do prospers.

 

4 Not so the wicked!
    They are like chaff
    that the wind blows away.


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

 

6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,
    but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
