Psalm 1:1-3

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the company of scoffers;
But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
    and on his law he meditates day and night.
 He is like a tree planted by streams of water
    that bears fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither.
 In all that he does, he prospers.

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, but is counseled by God’s Word. He does not stand in the way of sinners, but places himself in God’s way, on the path of righteousness. He does not keep the company of scoffers, but the company of those who build up one another.

 
His delight is in the law of the Lord; God’s law is his joy! On his law he meditates day and night. He joyfully keeps the law in his mind, delighting in it always.

He is like a tree planted by streams of water; beautiful, healthy, bearing fruit in its season, never lacking, never wanting, its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.
