المَزامِير 1

١ 1 طُوبَى لِلإِنْسَانِ الَّذِي لَا يَتْبَعُ مَشُورَةَ الأَشْرَارِ، ولَا يَقِفُ فِي طَرِيقِ الْخَاطِئِينَ، وَلَا يُجَالِسُ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ.

Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;

٢ 2 بَلْ فِي شَرِيعَةِ الرَّبِّ بَهْجَتُهُ، يَتَأَمَّلُ فِيهَا نَهَاراً وَلَيْلاً.

but his delight is in the LORD’s law. On his law he meditates day and night.

٣ 3 فَيَكُونُ كَشَجَرَةٍ مَغْرُوسَةٍ عِنْدَ مَجَارِي الْمِيَاهِ، تُعْطِي ثَمَرَهَا فِي حِينِهِ، وَوَرَقُهَا لَا يَذْبُلُ، وَكُلُّ مَا يَصْنَعُهُ يُفْلِحُ.

He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.

٤ 4 لَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ حَالُ الأَشْرَارِ، بَلْ إنَّهُمْ مِثْلُ التِّبْنِ الَّذِي تُبَدِّدُهُ الرِّيحُ.

The wicked are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.

٥ 5 لِذَلِكَ لَا تَقُومُ لَهُمْ قَائِمَةٌ فِي يَوْمِ الْقَضَاءِ، وَلَا يَكُونُ لِلْخُطَاةِ مَكَانٌ بَيْنَ جَمَاعَةِ الأَبْرَارِ،

Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

٦ 6 لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَحْفَظُ طَرِيقَ الأَبْرَارِ، أَمَّا طَرِيقُ الأَشْرَارِ فَمَصِيرُهَا الهَلاكُ.

For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.
