Psalms 1
1 O the blessedness of that one, Who has not walked in the counsel of the wicked, And has not stood in the way of sinners, And has not sat in the seat of scorners;
| אשרי האיש אשר לא הלך בעצת רשעים ובדרך חטאים לא עמד ובמושב לצים לא ישב׃ |
2 But his delight [is] in the Law of YHWH, And in His law he meditates by day and by night:
| כי אם בתורת יהוה חפצו ובתורתו יהגה יומם ולילה׃ |
3 And he has been as a tree, Planted by streams of water, That gives its fruit in its season, And its leaf does not wither, And all that he does he causes to prosper.
| והיה כעץ שתול על פלגי מים אשר פריו יתן בעתו ועלהו לא יבול וכל אשר יעשה יצליח׃ |
4 Not so the wicked: But [they are] as chaff that wind drives away!
| לא כן הרשעים כי אם כמץ אשר תדפנו רוח׃ |
5 Therefore the wicked do not rise in judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous,
| על כן לא יקמו רשעים במשפט וחטאים בעדת צדיקים׃ |
6 For YHWH is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!
| כי יודע יהוה דרך צדיקים ודרך רשעים תאבד׃ |
