Psalm 1:1-3

The Righteous and the Wicked Contrasted.

^{Tools
1}

How blessed is the man who ^(A)does not walk in the ^(B)counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the ^(a)^(C)path of sinners,
Nor ^(D)sit in the seat of scoffers!

^{Tools

But his ^(E)delight is ^(F)in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he meditates ^(G)day and ^(H)night.

^{Tools
3}

He will be like ^(I)a tree firmly planted by ^(b)streams of water,
Which yields its fruit in its season
And its ^(c)leaf does not wither;
And ^(d)in whatever he does, ^(J)he prospers.
