Psalms 1

1 BOOK FIRST: Happy is the man who walketh not in the council of the wicked, and standeth not in the way of sinners, and sitteth not in the seat of scorners;

Mai farin ciki ne mutumin da ba ya aiki da shawarar mugaye ko yă yi abin da masu zunubi suke yi ko yă zauna tare da masu yin ba’a.

2 But whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who doth meditate in his law by day and night.

Amma yana jin daɗin bin dokar Ubangiji, kuma yana ta nazarinta dare da rana.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by rivulets of water, that yieldeth its fruit in its season, and the leaf of which doth not wither; and all that he may do shall prosper.

Yana kama da itacen da aka shuka kusa da maɓulɓulan ruwa, wanda yake ba da amfani a daidai lokaci wanda kuma ganyensa ba sa bushewa. Duk abin da yake yi, yakan yi nasara.

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

Ba haka yake da mugaye ba! Su kamar yayi ne da iska take kwashewa.

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

Saboda haka mugaye ba za su iya tsayawa a shari’a ba, balle a sami masu zunubi a taron adalai.

6 For the Lord regardeth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked leadeth to perdition.

Gama Ubangiji yana lura da yadda adalai suke yin abubuwa, amma ayyukan mugaye za su kai su ga hallaka.
