Psalms 1:6 (KJ21)
For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Psalms 1:6 (NAS)
For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked will perish.

Psalms 1:6 (NIVUS)
For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

Psalms 1:6 (NLT)
For the LORD watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

The Sovereign Lord Jehovah, who has always existed, is the Controller and Master of the universe. The Almighty knows and observes all things. He instructs and advises you in the course for your life. You have been cleansed and made right with God, for He recognizes the way you should take. As you trust Him, He leads and guides you on that path. You will not go astray when you follow His directions.

Those who are ungodly do not have the advantages that you have, as a righteous man. They continually violate God's laws and depart from the path of justice. They commit wrong and make trouble for others. Therefore, their journey leads them to destruction. They wander away from the Truth and follow lies. They lose their ways and perish in the process, for they have no escape and no way to flee from their sin.
