        "Blessed is the person who does not follow the advice of the wicked or take the path of sinners or join a group of mockers.  Because if his delight is in Yehovah's teaching, and he meditates on it day and night, then he will be like a tree planted beside streams of water that bears its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither, and all that he does will prosper.  Not so the wicked who are like chaff that the wind drives away.  Therefore the wicked will not survive the judgment, and sinners will not be in the community of the righteous.  Because Yehovah knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to ruin."  (Psalm 1)
