but his delight is in the LORD’s† law.
On his law he meditates day and night.
THE SURROUNDING PASSAGE
Psalms 1:2 in context
Psalms 1:1–5
1
Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stand on the path of sinners,
nor sit in the seat of scoffers;
3
He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water,
that produces its fruit in its season,
whose leaf also does not wither.
Whatever he does shall prosper.
4
The wicked are not so,
but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5
Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
