Psalm 1

From Wesleyan Discipline

1:1 Blessed is the one

who does not walk in step with the wicked

or stand in the way that sinners take

or sit in the company of mockers,

1:2 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,

and who meditates on his law day and night.

1:3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,

which yields its fruit in season

and whose leaf does not wither—

whatever they do prospers.

1:4 Not so the wicked!

They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.

1:5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

1:6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,

but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
