Psalm 1:6

 1 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 whose delight   is in the law of the Lord,   and who meditates   on his law day and night.  3 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 Not so the wicked! They are like chaff   that the wind blows away.  5 Therefore the wicked will not stand   in the judgment,   nor sinners in the assembly   of the righteous.  6 For the Lord watches over   the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.

The New International Version (NIV) is an English translation of the Bible first published in 1978 by Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society). The NIV was published to meet the need for a modern translation done by Bible scholars using the earliest, highest quality manuscripts available. Of equal importance was that the Bible be expressed in broadly understood modern English.

The NIV is published by Zondervan in the United States and Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. The NIV was updated in 1984 and 2011 and has become one of the most popular and best-selling modern translations.
