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.
Psalm 1:1
Berean Standard Bible · 6 verses
Psalm 1 sets two ways of living side by side. The person who delights in God’s law is pictured as a tree planted beside a stream that bears fruit and stays green, while the wicked are like chaff the wind carries away. It closes by saying the Lord watches over the way of the righteous.
1Blessed 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.
2But his delight is in the Law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night.
3He 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.
4Not so the wicked! For they are like chaff driven off by the wind.
5Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6For the LORD guards the path of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
