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;

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 whose delight is in the law of the LORD, And who meditateth on his precepts 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 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.

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 the unrighteous; They are like chaff, which the wind driveth 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 judgment, Nor sinners in the assembly of the just.

Ya mere, ndị ajọ omume agaghị eguzosi ike nʼụbọchị ikpe; ndị mmehie agaghị eguzokwa na nzukọ ndị ezi omume.

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked leadeth to ruin.

Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị na-eche ụzọ ndị ezi omume nche. Ma ụzọ ndị ajọ omume ga-eduba ha nʼịla nʼiyi.
