Psalmi 1

1 Blago čovjeku koji ne slijedi savjeta opakih, ne staje na putu grešničkom i ne sjeda u zbor podrugljivaca,

BLESSED is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 već uživa u Zakonu Jahvinu, o Zakonu njegovu misli dan i noć.

But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 On je k'o stablo zasađeno pokraj voda tekućica što u svoje vrijeme plod donosi; lišće mu nikad ne vene, sve što radi dobrim urodi.

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

4 Nisu takvi opaki, ne, nisu takvi! Oni su k'o pljeva što je vjetar raznosi.

The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Stoga se opaki neće održati na sudu, ni grešnici u zajednici pravednih.

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

6 Jer Jahve zna put pravednih, a propast će put opakih.

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