Salme 1

1 Salig den Mand, som ikke vandrer i de ugudeliges Raad, ej heller staar paa Synderes Vej, ej heller sidder i Spotteres Sæde;

How blessed! [is] the person who - not he walks in [the] counsel of wicked [people] and in [the] way of sinners not he stands and in [the] seat of mockers not he sits.

2 men som har Lyst til Herrens Lov, og som grunder paa hans Lov Dag og Nat.

That except [is] in [the] law of Yahweh delight his and in law his he meditates by day and night.

3 Han skal være som et Træ, der er plantet ved Vandbække, hvilket giver sin Frugt i sin Tid, og hvoraf ikke et Blad affalder; og alt hvad han gør, skal han faa Lykke til.

And he is like a tree planted at streams of water which fruit its - it gives at appropriate time its and leafage its not it withers and all that he does it succeeds.

4 Saaledes ere de ugudelige ikke, men ligesom Avner, hvilke Vejret bortdriver.

Not [are] so the wicked [people] that except [they are] like the chaff which it drives about it wind.

5 Derfor skulle de ugudelige ikke bestaa i Dommen, ej heller Syndere i de retfærdiges Menighed.

There-fore - not they will stand wicked [people] in the judgment and sinners in [the] congregation of righteous [people].

6 Thi Herren kender de retfærdiges Vej; men de ugudeliges Vej skal forgaa.

For [is] knowing Yahweh [the] way of righteous [people] and [the] way of wicked [people] it will perish.
