Psalms 1

Blessed is the one who delights in YHWH's Torah and meditates on it day and night, like a tree planted by streams yielding fruit, while the wicked are like chaff driven away and will perish.[4][5] This psalm contrasts the righteous path of Torah obedience with the fate of the ungodly.[1][2]
