Psalms 1

1 [God] is pleased with those who do not do what [MET] wicked people advise them to do, and who do not imitate the behavior of [MET] sinful people, and who do not join in with people who (ridicule/sneer at) [God].

Błogosławiony mąż, który nie chodzi w radzie niepobożnych, a na drodze grzesznych nie stoi, i na stolicy naśniewców nie siedzi;

2 Those whom God is pleased with delight in doing the things that he has instructed/taught us to do. They read and think about Yahweh’s requirements, day and night.

Ale w zakonie Pańskim jest kochanie jego, a w zakonie jego rozmyśla we dnie i w nocy.

3 They [constantly produce/do things that please God] just like fruit trees that have been planted along the banks of a stream produce fruit at the right time every year. [Like] trees that never wither, they succeed in everything that they do.

Albowiem będzie jako drzewo nad strumieniem wód w sadzone, które owoc swój wydaje czasu swego, a liść jego nie opada; i wszystko, cokolwiek czynić będzie, poszczęści się.

4 But wicked people are not like that! Wicked people are [as worthless as] chaff that is blown away by the wind.

Lecz nie tak niepobożni; ale są jako plewa, którą wiatr rozmiata.

5 Therefore, wicked people (will not be acquitted/will be condemned) [LIT] when [God] judges people, and furthermore, sinful people will not even be present when [God] gathers righteous people together,

Przetoż się niepobożni na sądzie nie ostoją, ani grzesznicy w zgromadzeniu sprawiedliwych.

6 because he guides and protects righteous people, but the path that the wicked walk on leads them to where they will be destroyed/punished [by God forever].

Albowiem zna Pan drogę sprawiedliwych; ale droga niepobożnych zginie.
