< Psalms 1 >
1 “BOOK I” Happy the man who walketh not in the counsel of the unrighteous, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers;
How blessed! [is] the person who - not he walks in [the] counsel of wicked [people] and in [the] way of sinners not he stands and in [the] seat of mockers not he sits.
2 But whose delight is in the law of the LORD, And who meditateth on his precepts day and night.
That except [is] in [the] law of Yahweh delight his and in law his he meditates by day and night.
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaves also do not wither: All that he doeth shall prosper.
And he is like a tree planted at streams of water which fruit its - it gives at appropriate time its and leafage its not it withers and all that he does it succeeds.
4 Not so the unrighteous; They are like chaff, which the wind driveth away.
Not [are] so the wicked [people] that except [they are] like the chaff which it drives about it wind.
5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in judgment, Nor sinners in the assembly of the just.
There-fore - not they will stand wicked [people] in the judgment and sinners in [the] congregation of righteous [people].
6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked leadeth to ruin.
For [is] knowing Yahweh [the] way of righteous [people] and [the] way of wicked [people] it will perish.
