Psalms 1

1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the advice of the wicked, or stand in the pathway with sinners, or sit in the assembly of mockers.

Woayra ame si mezɔna ɖe ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe aɖaŋuɖoɖo nu alo nɔa tsitre ɖe nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo ƒe mɔ dzi loo alo nɔa anyi ɖe fewuɖulawo dome o,

2 But his delight is in the law of Yahweh, and on his law he meditates day and night.

ke boŋ ekpɔa dzidzɔ le Yehowa ƒe se la ŋu, eye wòdea ŋugble le eŋu zã kple keli.

3 He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaves do not wither; whatever he does will prosper.

Eya amea ɖi ati si wodo ɖe tɔʋuwo to, esi tsea ku le etseɣi, melũa xe o, eye nu sia nu si wòwɔna la, edzea edzi nyuie.

4 The wicked are not so, but are instead like the chaff that the wind drives away.

Mele alea na ame vɔ̃ɖi ya o! Wole abe blitsro si ya ƒona dzonae la ene.

5 So the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

Eya ta ame vɔ̃ɖi manɔ te le ʋɔnudrɔ̃gbe, alo nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo nanɔ ame dzɔdzɔewo ƒe ha me o.

6 For Yahweh approves of the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

Elabena Yehowa kpɔa ame dzɔdzɔewo ƒe mɔ ta, ke ame vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe mɔ atsrɔ̃ gbidii.
