Psaumes 1

1 Heureux l'homme qui ne marche pas dans le conseil des impies, qui ne se tient pas dans la voie des pécheurs, et qui ne s'assied pas dans la compagnie des moqueurs,

[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].

2 mais qui a son plaisir dans la loi de Yahweh, et qui la médite jour et nuit!

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.

3 Il est comme un arbre planté près d'un cours d'eau, qui donne son fruit en son temps, et dont le feuillage ne se flétrit pas: tout ce qu'il fait réussit.

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.

4 Il n'en est pas ainsi des impies: ils sont comme la paille que chasse le vent.

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

5 Aussi les impies ne resteront-ils pas debout au jour du jugement, ni les pécheurs dans l'assemblée des justes.

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,

6 Car Yahweh connaît la voie du juste, mais la voie des pécheurs mène à la ruine.

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].
