Psalm 1
English Standard Version

Book One

The Way of the Righteous and the Wicked

1 Blessed is the man[a]
    who (A)walks not in (B)the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in (C)the way of sinners,
    nor (D)sits in (E)the seat of (F)scoffers;
2 but his (G)delight is in the law[b] of the Lord,
    and on his (H)law he meditates day and night.

3 He is like (I)a tree
    planted by (J)streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
    and its (K)leaf does not wither.
(L)In all that he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so,
    but are like (M)chaff that the wind drives away.

5 Therefore the wicked (N)will not stand in the judgment,
    nor sinners in (O)the congregation of the righteous;
6 for the Lord (P)knows (Q)the way of the righteous,
    but the way of the wicked will perish.
