Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
The Book of Psalms is the Bible's songbook: 150 prayers, poems, and songs written over hundreds of years and gathered into one volume. Some are joyful, some are desperate, some are raw with grief or anger. They cover the full range of human experience addressed directly to God. Psalm 1 is their prologue, placed before all 150 as a deliberate introduction to the Psalter as a whole.
