Psalms 1

1 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.

惡きものの謀略にあゆまず つみびとの途にたたず 嘲るものの座にすわらぬ者はさいはひなり

2 Instead they love to do what the law of the Lord says, and they think about it day and night.

かかる人はヱホバの法をよろこびて日も夜もこれをおもふ

3 They're like trees growing by flowing rivers, producing fruit every season. Their leaves never wither, and they are successful in all they do.

かかる人は水流のほとりにうゑし樹の期にいたりて實をむすび 葉もまた凋まざるごとく その作ところ皆さかえん

4 But it's not like that for the wicked! They are like chaff, blown away by the wind.

あしき人はしからず 風のふきさる粃糠のごとし

5 For this reason the wicked will not survive the judgment—sinners have no place among those who live right.

然ばあしきものは審判にたへず罪人は義きものの會にたつことを得ざるなり

6 For the Lord watches over those who follow the right way, but the way of the wicked leads to death.

そはヱホバはただしきものの途をしりたまふ されど惡きものの途はほろびん
