< Psalms 1 >
1 Blessed is the one who doesn't follow the advice of the wicked, or take the path of sinners, or join in with scoffers.
Onye ihe na-agara nke ọma ka mmadụ ahụ bụ, onye na-adịghị aga ije na ndụmọdụ ndị na-emebi iwu; onye na-adịghị eguzokwa nʼụzọ ndị mmehie maọbụ soro nʼotu ndị nkwutọ.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
Kama ihe na-atọ ya ụtọ bụ ime ihe niile dị nʼiwu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ na-atụgharịkwa uche ya nʼiwu Onyenwe anyị ehihie na abalị,
3 He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither, and whatever he does shall prosper.
Ọ dị ka osisi a kụrụ nʼakụkụ iyi, nke na-amịpụta mkpụrụ ya nʼoge ya, nke ahịhịa ya na-adịghị akpọnwụ akpọnwụ. Ihe niile ọ na-eme na-agara ya nke ọma.
4 Not so with the wicked; instead, they are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
Ma ndị ajọ omume adịghị otu a. Ha dị ka igbugbo ọka nke oke ifufe na-efesasị.
5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
Ya mere, ndị ajọ omume agaghị eguzosi ike nʼụbọchị ikpe; ndị mmehie agaghị eguzokwa na nzukọ ndị ezi omume.
6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị na-eche ụzọ ndị ezi omume nche. Ma ụzọ ndị ajọ omume ga-eduba ha nʼịla nʼiyi.
