How well God must like you— 
    you don’t walk in the ruts of those blind-as-bats,
    you don’t stand with the good-for-nothings,
    you don’t take your seat among the know-it-alls.

Instead you thrill to God’s Word, you chew on Scripture day and night.
Psalm 1:1-2, MSG

What delight comes to the one who follows God’s ways!
    He won’t walk in step with the wicked,
    nor share the sinner’s way,
    nor be found sitting in the scorner’s seat.
His passion is to remain true to the Word of “I AM,”
    meditating day and night[c] on the true revelation of light.
Psalm 1:1-2 MSG
