< Dagiti Salmo 1 >
1 Nagasat ti tao a saan a magna iti pammagbaga dagiti nadangkes, wenno agtakder iti dalan dagiti managbasol, wenno agtugaw iti taripnong dagiti manglalais.
How happy the man, who hath not walked in the counsel of the lawless, —and, in the way of sinners, hath not stood, and, in the seat of scoffers, hath not sat;
2 Ngem ti ragsakna ket adda iti linteg ni Yahweh, ken ut-utobenna ti linteg ni Yahweh iti aldaw ken rabii.
But, in the law of Yahweh, is his delight, —and, in his law, doth he talk with himself day and night.
3 Maiyarig isuna iti maysa a kayo a naimula iti igid dagiti waig nga agbunga iti tiempona, a saan a malaylay dagiti bulongna; agballigi ti aniaman nga aramidenna.
So doth he become like a tree planted by streams of waters, —that yieldeth, its fruit, in its season, whose leaf, also doth not wither, and, whatsoever he doeth, prospereth.
4 Saan a kasta dagiti nadangkes, ngem kasla ketdi iti taep nga itayab ti angin.
Not so, the lawless, —but as chaff which is driven about by the wind:
5 Isu a saanto a makatakder dagiti nadangkes iti panangukom, wenno dagiti managbasol iti taripnong dagiti nalinteg.
For this cause, shall the lawless not stand in the judgment, —nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 Ta anamungan ni Yahweh ti dalan dagiti nalinteg, ngem mapukawto ti dalan dagiti nadangkes.
For Yahweh doth acknowledge the way of the righteous; but, the way of the lawless, shall vanish.
