Psalm 1 - Attributes of God

Attributes of God

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

— Psalm 1:6

YHWH (rendered "The LORD" in KJV) is specifically mentioned in this closing to Psalm 1. He blesses those who are righteous and walk in his ways. The Lord causes the righteous person to delight in his law. He hates the ungodly and wants his people to stay separate from them. The Lord will make sure that the righteous are cared for. The Lord makes sure that the ways of wicked men will die with them and not be passed down into the righteous generations. The Lord watches over the righteous men, but he does not protect the ungodly from the natural end of their choices.
