Psalm 1:1-6 From NIV College Devo to Jerusalem Reader's Edition
The Two Ways
Psalm 1:1-6 Happy the man who never follows the advice of the wicked, or loiters on the way that sinners take, or sits about with scoffers,
but finds his pleasure in the Law of Yahweh, and murmurs his law day and night.
He is like a tree that is planted by water streams, yielding its fruit in season, it leaves never fading; success attends all he does.
It is nothing like this with the wicked, nothing like this! No, these are like chaff blown away by the wind.
The wicked will not stand firm when Judgement comes, nor sinners when the virtuous assemble.
For Yahweh takes care of the way the virtuous go, but the way of the wicked is doomed.
1.Prologue
A Commendation of Wisdom
The Sage speaks; avoid bad company
Proverbs 1:8-33 Listen, my son, to your father's instruction, do not reject your mother's teaching:
they will be a crown of grace for your head, a circlet for your neck.
My son, if sinners try to seduce you, do not give way.
If they say, 'Come with us; there is blood to be had if we lie in wait for it, if we plan an ambush for the innocent; we can swallow them alive, like Sheol,
alive and whole like those who go down to the Pit.
We shall find treasures of every sort, we shall fill our houses with plunder; throw in your lot with us;
one purse between us all. My son, do not follow them in their way,
keep your steps out of their path
(for their feet hasten to evil, they are quick to shed blood);
the net is always spread in vain if the bird is watching.
It is for their own blood these men lie in wait, their own selves they lie in ambush for.
To this come all men who are after dishonest gain, which robs of their lives all those who take it for thier own.
Wisdom speaks: a warning to the heedless
Wisdom calls aloud in the streets, she raises her voice in the public squares;
she calls out at the street corners, she delivers her message at the city gates
'You ignorant people, how much longer will you cling to your ignorance? How much longer will mockers revel in their mocking and fools hold knowledge contemptible?
Pay attention to my warning; now I will pour out my heart to you, and tell you what I have to say.
Since I have called and you have refused me, since I have beckoned and no one has taken notice,
since you have ignored all my advice and rejected all my warnings,
I, for my part, will laugh at your distress, I will jeer at you when calamity comes,
when calamity bears down on you like a storm and your distress like a storm and your distress like a whirlwind, when disaster and anguish bear down on you.
Then they shall call on me, but I will not answer, they shall seek me eagerly and shall not find me.
They despised knowledge, they had no love for the fear of Yahweh,
they would take no advice from me, and spurned all my warnings;
so they must eat the fruits of their own courses, and choke themselves with their own scheming.
For the errors of the ignorant lead to their death, and the complacency of fools works their own ruin;
but whoever listens to me may live secure, he will have quiet, fearing no mischance.'
