< 詩篇 1 >
1 【善惡二路】凡不隨從惡人的計謀,不插足於罪人的道路,不參與譏諷者的席位,
Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of evil men.
2 專心愛好上主法律的,畫夜默思上主誡命的,這樣的人才是有福的!
But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in his law will he meditate day and night.
3 他像植在溪畔的樹木,準時結果,枝葉不枯,所作所為,隨心所欲。
And he shall be as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, which shall yield its fruit in its season, and its leaf shall not fall off; and whatever he shall do shall be prospered.
4 惡人卻不如此,絕不如此! 他們像被風吹散的糠秕。
Not so the ungodly; —not so: but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.
5 在審判的時日,惡人站立不住;在義人的會中,罪人不能立足:
Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgement, nor sinners in the counsel of the just.
For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
