Psalms 1

1 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.

Haha t’indaty tsy mañavelo am-panoroa’ o lo-tserekeo, naho tsy mijohañe an-dala’ o beihakeoo, vaho tsy miambesatse am- pitoboha’ o mpañinjeo;

2 But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in his law will he meditate day and night.

Fa ty Hà’ Iehovà ro mampinembanembañ’ aze, ninihe’e handro an-kaleñe i Hà’ey

3 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.

Ie ho hambañe aman-katae namboleñe añ’olon-torahañe eo, mamoa an-tsa’e naho tsy miheatse o rave’eo, miraorao ze hene anoe’e.

4 Not so the ungodly; —not so: but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.

Tsy manahake Izay o lo-tserekeo, fa hambañe amo kafokafo aboelen-tiokeo.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgement, nor sinners in the counsel of the just.

Toly ndra tsy haha-fitroatse amy zakay o tsivokatseo, ndra ami’ty fivori’ o vañoñeo o mpanan-tahiñeo.

6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Arofoana’ Iehovà ty fañaveloa’ o vantañeo, fe ho modo ty fandenà’ o tsivoatsoloo.
