Psalms 1

1 Happy is the man◦Who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,And in the way of sinners stands not,And in the seat of the scornful sits not.
2 But◦ in the law1 of Jehovah is his delight;And in His law he meditates day and night.
3 And he shall be as a tree planted◦ by◦ streams◦ of waters,That gives his fruit in its time,And his leaf does· not ·fade;And all that he does shall prosper.
4 Not so the wicked;But◦ they are as the chaff which the wind blows·​·away.
5 Therefore the wicked shall not rise·​·up in the judgment,Nor◦ sinners in the congregation of the just.
6 For Jehovah knows the way of the just;But the way of the wicked shall perish.

1AC 6752:4 notes that “law” here refers to the books of Moses, as nothing beyond Judges had yet been written.
