< Psalms 1 >
1 Blessed is the man who has not followed the counsel of the impious, and has not remained in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the chair of pestilence.
Svētīgs tas cilvēks, kas nestaigā bezdievīgo runās, nedz stāv uz grēcinieku ceļa, nedz sēž mēdītāju biedrībā;
2 But his will is with the law of the Lord, and he will meditate on his law, day and night.
Bet kam labs prāts pie Tā Kunga bauslības, un kas Viņa bauslību pārdomā dienās, naktīs.
3 And he will be like a tree that has been planted beside running waters, which will provide its fruit in its time, and its leaf will not fall away, and all things whatsoever that he does will prosper.
Jo tas ir kā koks stādīts pie ūdens upēm, kas savus augļus nes savā laikā, un viņa lapas nesavīst, un viss, ko viņš dara, tas labi izdodas.
4 Not so the impious, not so. For they are like the dust that the wind casts along the face of the earth.
Tā nav bezdievīgiem, bet tie ir kā pelus, ko vējš izputina.
5 Therefore, the impious will not prevail again in judgment, nor sinners in the council of the just.
Tāpēc bezdievīgie nepastāvēs sodā, nedz grēcinieki taisno draudzē.
6 For the Lord knows the way of the just. And the path of the impious will pass away.
Jo Tas Kungs pazīst taisno ceļu, bet bezdievīgo ceļš ies bojā.
