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.

Svētīgs tas cilvēks, kas nestaigā bezdievīgo runās, nedz stāv uz grēcinieku ceļa, nedz sēž mēdītāju biedrībā;

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

Bet kam labs prāts pie Tā Kunga bauslības, un kas Viņa bauslību pārdomā dienās, naktīs.

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.

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

Tā nav bezdievīgiem, bet tie ir kā pelus, ko vējš izputina.

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

Tāpēc bezdievīgie nepastāvēs sodā, nedz grēcinieki taisno draudzē.

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

Jo Tas Kungs pazīst taisno ceļu, bet bezdievīgo ceļš ies bojā.
