←Prev   Psalms 1 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



1:1  God blesses those people who refuse evil advice and won't follow sinners or join in sneering at God.
1:2  Instead, they find happiness in the Teaching of the Lord, and they think about it day and night.
1:3  They are like trees growing beside a stream, trees that produce fruit in season and always have leaves. Those people succeed in everything they do.
1:4  That isn't true of those who are evil— they are like straw blown by the wind.
1:5  Sinners won't have an excuse on the day of judgment, and they won't have a place with the people of God.
1:6  The Lord protects everyone who follows him, but the wicked follow a road that leads to ruin.
