Psalm1 NWT(2013)

1 Happy is the man who does not walk according to the advice of the wicked

And does not stand on the path of sinners+

And does not sit in the seat of scoffers.+

 2 But his delight is in the law of Jehovah,+

And he reads His law in an undertone* day and night.+

 3 He will be like a tree planted by streams of water,

A tree that produces fruit in its season,

The foliage of which does not wither.

And everything he does will succeed.+

 4 The wicked are not like that;

They are like the chaff that the wind blows away.

 5 That is why the wicked will not remain standing in the judgment;+

Nor will sinners remain standing in the assembly of the righteous.+

 6 For Jehovah is aware of the way of the righteous,+

But the way of the wicked will perish.+
