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;

Nhyira ne onipa a ontie amumɔyɛfo afotu na onni nnebɔneyɛfo nhwɛso akyi na ɔntena fɛwdifo tenabea.

2 But his delight [is] in the Law of YHWH, And in His law he meditates by day and by night:

Na mmom, Awurade mmara sɔ nʼani, na osusuw ho awia ne anadwo.

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.

Ɔte sɛ dua a wɔatɛw wɔ asuten ho, na ɛsow nʼaba ne bere mu a nʼahaban no nguan da. Nea ɔyɛ biara yɛ yiye.

4 Not so the wicked: But [they are] as chaff that wind drives away!

Nanso nnebɔneyɛfo nte saa; wɔte sɛ ntɛtɛ a mframa bɔ gu.

5 Therefore the wicked do not rise in judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous,

Enti amumɔyɛfo rentumi nnyina atemmu no ano, na nnebɔneyɛfo nso rentena atreneefo asafo mu.

6 For YHWH is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!

Efisɛ Awurade kyerɛ ɔtreneeni kwan nanso amumɔyɛfo kwan de, ɛbɛyera.
