Psalm 11
1:1 How blessed1 is the one2 who does not follow3 the advice4 of the wicked,5
or stand in the pathway6 with sinners,
or sit in the assembly7 of scoffers!8
1:2 Instead9 he finds pleasure in obeying the Lord’s commands;10
he meditates on11 his commands12 day and night.
1:3 He is like13 a tree planted by flowing streams;14
it15 yields16 its fruit at the proper time,17
and its leaves never fall off.18
He succeeds in everything he attempts.19
Instead20 they are like wind-driven chaff.21
1:5 For this reason22 the wicked cannot withstand23 judgment,24
nor can sinners join the assembly of the godly.25
1:6 Certainly26 the Lord guards the way of the godly,27
but the way of the wicked ends in destruction.28
