Bible Question:
I don't understand Psalm 1:1, could you please break it down a little more for me? Thank you. |
Bible Answer: Psalm 1:1 The Amplified Bible BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather. Holman Christian Standard Bible® How happy is the man who does not follow the advice of the wicked, or take the path of sinners, or join a group of mockers! |
