Psalms 1
The two ways
1 Happy the man who never follows the advice of the wicked, or loiters on the way that sinners take, or sits about with scoffers,
2 but finds his pleasure in the Law of Yahweh, and murmurs his law day and night.
3 He is like a tree that is planted by water streams, yielding its fruit in season, its leaves never fading;
4 It is nothing like this with the wicked, nothing like this! No, these are like chaff blown away by the wind.
5 The wicked will not stand firm when Judgement comes, nor sinners when the virtuous assemble.
6 For Yahweh takes care of the way the virtuous go, but the way of the wicked is doomed.
