Psalm 1.
Psalm 1 (Good News Translation)
1Happy 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. 2Instead, they find joy in obeying
the Law of the Lord,
and they study it day and night. 3They 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. 4But evil people are not like this at
all;
they are like straw that the wind blows away. 5Sinners will be condemned
by God
and kept apart from God's own people. 6The righteous are guided and
protected by the Lord,
but the evil are on the way to their doom.
