	NLT New Living Translation	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
1	Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.	Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers;	Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,
2	But they delight in the law of the LORD, meditating on it day and night.	but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.	but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night.
3	They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.	He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.	That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.
4	But not the wicked! They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind.	The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away.	Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
5	They will be condemned at the time of judgment. Sinners will have no place among the godly.	Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;	Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6	For the LORD watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.	for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.	For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
