< 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;
Svētīgs tas cilvēks, kas nestaigā bezdievīgo runās, nedz stāv uz grēcinieku ceļa, nedz sēž mēdītāju biedrībā;
2 But his delight [is] in the Law of YHWH, And in His law he meditates by day and by night:
Bet kam labs prāts pie Tā Kunga bauslības, un kas Viņa bauslību pārdomā dienās, naktīs.
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.
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 wicked: But [they are] as chaff that wind drives away!
Tā nav bezdievīgiem, bet tie ir kā pelus, ko vējš izputina.
5 Therefore the wicked do not rise in judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous,
Tāpēc bezdievīgie nepastāvēs sodā, nedz grēcinieki taisno draudzē.
6 For YHWH is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!
Jo Tas Kungs pazīst taisno ceļu, bet bezdievīgo ceļš ies bojā.
