Psalms 1

1 How happy the man, who hath not walked in the counsel of the lawless, —and, in the way of sinners, hath not stood, and, in the seat of scoffers, hath not sat;

【善惡二路】凡不隨從惡人的計謀，不插足於罪人的道路，不參與譏諷者的席位，

2 But, in the law of Yahweh, is his delight, —and, in his law, doth he talk with himself day and night.

專心愛好上主法律的，畫夜默思上主誡命的，這樣的人才是有福的！

3 So doth he become like a tree planted by streams of waters, —that yieldeth, its fruit, in its season, whose leaf, also doth not wither, and, whatsoever he doeth, prospereth.

他像植在溪畔的樹木，準時結果，枝葉不枯，所作所為，隨心所欲。

4 Not so, the lawless, —but as chaff which is driven about by the wind:

惡人卻不如此，絕不如此! 他們像被風吹散的糠秕。

5 For this cause, shall the lawless not stand in the judgment, —nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

在審判的時日，惡人站立不住；在義人的會中，罪人不能立足：

6 For Yahweh doth acknowledge the way of the righteous; but, the way of the lawless, shall vanish.

因上主賞識義人的行徑，惡人的行徑必自趨沉淪
