Psalms 1–41

The Two Paths

Matthew 5:3–12; Luke 6:20–23

1Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;+ 2but his delight is in Yahweh’s law. On his law he meditates day and night.+ 3He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.+ 4The wicked are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.+ 5Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.+ 6For Yahweh knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.+
