Psalms

Happy is the one who has not followed the counsel of the wicked,or taken the path of sinners,or joined the company of the insolent;

rather, this one delights in GOD’s teaching,and studiesastudies Or “recites”; lit. “utters.” that teaching day and night.

Such a one is like a tree planted beside streams of water,which yields its fruit in season,whose foliage never fades,and whatever it produces thrives.bit produces thrives Or “he does prospers.”

Not so the wicked;rather, they are like chaff that wind blows away.

Therefore the wicked will not survive judgment,nor will sinners, in the assembly of the righteous.

For GOD cherishes the way of the righteous,but the way of the wicked is doomed.
