Psalm 1:4-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
II
4 But not so are the wicked,[a] not so!
They are like chaff driven by the wind.(A)
5 Therefore the wicked will not arise at the judgment,
nor will sinners in the assembly of the just.
6 Because the Lord knows the way of the just,(B)
but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.

4 But evil people are not like this at all;
they are like straw that the wind blows away.

and kept apart from God's own people.

but the evil are on the way to their doom.
