< 詩篇 1 >
1 不從惡人的計謀, 不站罪人的道路, 不坐褻慢人的座位,
Happy are those who don't follow the advice of the wicked. They refuse to adopt the ways of sinful people, and they don't make fun of others.
2 惟喜愛耶和華的律法, 晝夜思想, 這人便為有福!
Instead they love to do what the law of the Lord says, and they think about it day and night.
3 他要像一棵樹栽在溪水旁, 按時候結果子, 葉子也不枯乾。 凡他所做的盡都順利。
They're like trees growing by flowing rivers, producing fruit every season. Their leaves never wither, and they are successful in all they do.
But it's not like that for the wicked! They are like chaff, blown away by the wind.
5 因此,當審判的時候,惡人必站立不住; 罪人在義人的會中也是如此。
For this reason the wicked will not survive the judgment—sinners have no place among those who live right.
6 因為耶和華知道義人的道路; 惡人的道路卻必滅亡。
For the Lord watches over those who follow the right way, but the way of the wicked leads to death.
