←Prev   Psalms 1 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



1:1  Happy are those who reject the advice of evil people, who do not follow the example of sinners or join those who have no use for God.
1:2  Instead, they find joy in obeying the Law of the Lord, and they study it day and night.
1:3  They are like trees that grow beside a stream, that bear fruit at the right time, and whose leaves do not dry up. They succeed in everything they do.
1:4  But evil people are not like this at all; they are like straw that the wind blows away.
1:5  Sinners will be condemned by God and kept apart from God's own people.
1:6  The righteous are guided and protected by the Lord, but the evil are on the way to their doom.
