Psalms 1

1 BOOK I HAPPY IS the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked, nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seat of the scornful.

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 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law doth he meditate day and night.

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

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by streams of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in its season, and whose leaf doth not wither; and in whatsoever he doeth he shall prosper.

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 Not so the wicked; but they are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

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

5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

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

6 For the LORD regardeth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked shall perish.

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