Psalm 1
Revised Standard Version
BOOK I
The Two Ways
1 Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 He is like a tree
planted by streams of water,
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so,
but are like chaff which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
6 for the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
Debby & Paul Horne says
Pastor Donn,
What a beautiful and worshipful service. The music, the lay leader and the sermon were as always a blessing. Today’s scripture was especially poignant for me, it was my mom’s favorite Psalm, she passed away in April of 1975 and I am always touched by that Psalm for a variety of emotional reasons. I remember hearing that Psalm quoted by Mom when I was just 2 or 3 years old. And I heard it many times before I turned 18 and left home to go out on my own. God Bless!
