Psalms 1

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

١ طُوبَى لِلإِنْسَانِ الَّذِي لَا يَتْبَعُ مَشُورَةَ الأَشْرَارِ، ولَا يَقِفُ فِي طَرِيقِ الْخَاطِئِينَ، وَلَا يُجَالِسُ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ.

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

٢ بَلْ فِي شَرِيعَةِ الرَّبِّ بَهْجَتُهُ، يَتَأَمَّلُ فِيهَا نَهَاراً وَلَيْلاً.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also doth not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

٣ فَيَكُونُ كَشَجَرَةٍ مَغْرُوسَةٍ عِنْدَ مَجَارِي الْمِيَاهِ، تُعْطِي ثَمَرَهَا فِي حِينِهِ، وَوَرَقُهَا لَا يَذْبُلُ، وَكُلُّ مَا يَصْنَعُهُ يُفْلِحُ.

4 The wicked are not so; but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

٤ لَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ حَالُ الأَشْرَارِ، بَلْ إنَّهُمْ مِثْلُ التِّبْنِ الَّذِي تُبَدِّدُهُ الرِّيحُ.

5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

٥ لِذَلِكَ لَا تَقُومُ لَهُمْ قَائِمَةٌ فِي يَوْمِ الْقَضَاءِ، وَلَا يَكُونُ لِلْخُطَاةِ مَكَانٌ بَيْنَ جَمَاعَةِ الأَبْرَارِ،

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the wicked shall perish.

٦ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَحْفَظُ طَرِيقَ الأَبْرَارِ، أَمَّا طَرِيقُ الأَشْرَارِ فَمَصِيرُهَا الهَلاكُ.
