< Psalms 1 >
1 Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers.
Nhyira ne onipa a ontie amumɔyɛfo afotu na onni nnebɔneyɛfo nhwɛso akyi na ɔntena fɛwdifo tenabea.
2 But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
Na mmom, Awurade mmara sɔ nʼani, na osusuw ho awia ne anadwo.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in season; its leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he doeth shall prosper.
Ɔte sɛ dua a wɔatɛw wɔ asuten ho, na ɛsow nʼaba ne bere mu a nʼahaban no nguan da. Nea ɔyɛ biara yɛ yiye.
4 The ungodly [are] not so: but [are] like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Nanso nnebɔneyɛfo nte saa; wɔte sɛ ntɛtɛ a mframa bɔ gu.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
Enti amumɔyɛfo rentumi nnyina atemmu no ano, na nnebɔneyɛfo nso rentena atreneefo asafo mu.
6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
Efisɛ Awurade kyerɛ ɔtreneeni kwan nanso amumɔyɛfo kwan de, ɛbɛyera.
