(Psa 1:2 NIV) But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.

(Psa 1:3 NIV) He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.

(Psa 1:4 NIV) Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.

(Psa 1:5 NIV) Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
