Psalms 1

Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

Switch Version:

Introduction

¹ How happy is the one who does not walk in the advice of the wicked or stand in the pathway with sinners or sit in the company of mockers! ⓐ

² Instead, his delight is in the LORD’s instruction, and he meditates on it day and night. ⓑ

³ He is like a tree planted beside flowing streams [1] that bears its fruit in its season ⓒ and whose leaf does not wither. ⓓ Whatever he does prospers. ⓔ

⁴ The wicked are not like this; instead, they are like chaff that the wind blows away. ⓕ

⁵ Therefore the wicked will not stand up in the judgment, ⓖ nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

⁶ For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, ⓗ but the way of the wicked leads to ruin. ⓘ
