Psalm 1:2-4
EasyEnglish Bible
Psalm 1:2-4
EasyEnglish Bible
2 He is happy when he obeys the Law of the Lord.[a]
He thinks about God's Law during the day and at night.
3 He will become like a tree that grows beside streams of water.
It gives its fruit at the right season.
Its leaves do not fall off.
Everything that person does will have a good result.
4 But wicked people are as empty as chaff.
The wind blows them away.[b]
Footnotes
- 1:2 When we write Lord like this, it is a special name for God. Sometimes people write it as ‘Yahweh’, or as ‘Jehovah’. It is his own name that he told Moses. See Exodus 3:14. It means ‘I am who I am’. This shows that God has always been there and he always will be there.
- 1:4 Wicked people do not obey God's rules. God will blow them away like chaff one day.

and whose leaf(H) does not wither—
whatever they do prospers.(I)

They are like chaff(J)
that the wind blows away.
