PSALMS 1

1 God is pleased with those who do not do what [MET] wicked people advise them to do, and who do not imitate the behavior of [MET] sinful people, and who do not join in with people who ◄ridicule/sneer at► God.
2 Those whom God is pleased with delight in doing the things that he has instructed/taught us to do. They read and think about Yahweh’s requirements, day and night.
3 They constantly produce/do things that please God just like fruit trees that have been planted along the banks of a stream produce fruit at the right time every year. Like trees that never wither, they succeed in everything that they do.
4 But wicked people are not like that! Wicked people are as worthless as chaff that is blown away by the wind.
5 Therefore, wicked people ◄will not be acquitted/will be condemned► [LIT] when God judges people, and furthermore, sinful people will not even be present when God gathers righteous people together,
6 because he guides and protects righteous people, but the path that the wicked walk on leads them to where they will be destroyed/punished by God forever.
