Psalm 1:1-3

Expanded Bible

1 ·Happy [Blessed] are those who don’t ·listen to [^Lwalk in the counsel of] the wicked,
    who don’t ·go where sinners go [^Lstand in the way of sinners],
    who don’t ·do what evil people do [^Lsit in the seat of mockers].
² They ·love [delight in] the Lord’s ·teachings [laws; instructions],
    and they ·think about [meditate on] those ·teachings [laws; instructions] day and night.
³ They are like a tree planted by ·a river [^Lstreams of water; ^Cfull of life, strong, vibrant].
    The tree produces fruit in season,
    and its leaves don’t ·die [wither].
Everything they do will ·succeed [prosper].
