Psaumes 1

1 Heureux l'homme qui ne suit point le conseil des impies, et ne pratique point la voie des pécheurs, et ne prend point place au cercle 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 fait son plaisir de la loi de l'Éternel, et médite sa loi le jour et la 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'une eau courante, qui donne son fruit en sa saison, et dont la feuille ne se flétrit point: tout ce qu'il fait, est suivi de succès.

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 Tels ne sont point les impies, mais ils sont comme la balle dissipée par 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 ne tiennent-ils pas devant le jugement, non plus que 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 l'Éternel a l'œil sur la voie des justes, mais la voie des impies 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].
