Psalms 1

1 Blessed is the man that doeth not walke in the counsell of the wicked, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in ye seate of the scornefull:

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

2 But his delite is in the Lawe of the Lord, and in his Lawe doeth he meditate day and night.

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

3 For he shall be like a tree planted by the riuers of waters, that will bring foorth her fruite in due season: whose leafe shall not fade: so whatsoeuer he shall doe, shall prosper.

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.

4 The wicked are not so, but as the chaffe, which the winde driueth away.

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

5 Therefore the wicked shall not stande in the iudgement, nor sinners in the assemblie of the righteous.

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

6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous, and the way of the wicked shall perish.

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