< 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;
Nagasat ti tao a saan a magna iti pammagbaga dagiti nadangkes, wenno agtakder iti dalan dagiti managbasol, wenno agtugaw iti taripnong dagiti manglalais.
2 But whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who doth meditate in his law by day and night.
Ngem ti ragsakna ket adda iti linteg ni Yahweh, ken ut-utobenna ti linteg ni Yahweh iti aldaw ken rabii.
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.
Maiyarig isuna iti maysa a kayo a naimula iti igid dagiti waig nga agbunga iti tiempona, a saan a malaylay dagiti bulongna; agballigi ti aniaman nga aramidenna.
4 Not so the wicked; but they are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Saan a kasta dagiti nadangkes, ngem kasla ketdi iti taep nga itayab ti angin.
5 Therefore shall the wicked not be able to stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
Isu a saanto a makatakder dagiti nadangkes iti panangukom, wenno dagiti managbasol iti taripnong dagiti nalinteg.
6 For the Lord regardeth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked leadeth to perdition.
Ta anamungan ni Yahweh ti dalan dagiti nalinteg, ngem mapukawto ti dalan dagiti nadangkes.
