Psalm 1Common English Bible (CEB) BOOK I (Psalms 1–41) Psalm 1 1 The truly happy person     doesn’t follow wicked advice,     doesn’t stand on the road of sinners,     and doesn’t sit with the disrespectful. 2 Instead of doing those things,     these persons love the Lord’s Instruction,     and they recite God’s Instruction day and night! 3 They are like a tree replanted by streams of water,     which bears fruit at just the right time     and whose leaves don’t fade.         Whatever they do succeeds. 4 That’s not true for the wicked!     They are like dust that the wind blows away. 5 And that’s why the wicked will have no standing in the court of justice—     neither will sinners     in the assembly of the righteous. 6 The Lord is intimately acquainted     with the way of the righteous,     but the way of the wicked is destroyed.
