詩篇 1

1 惡きものの謀略にあゆまず つみびとの途にたたず 嘲るものの座にすわらぬ者はさいはひなり

O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;

2 かかる人はヱホバの法をよろこびて日も夜もこれをおもふ

But — in the law of Jehovah [is] his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:

3 かかる人は水流のほとりにうゑし樹の期にいたりて實をむすび 葉もまた凋まざるごとく その作ところ皆さかえん

And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.

4 あしき人はしからず 風のふきさる粃糠のごとし

Not so the wicked: But — as chaff that wind driveth away!

5 然ばあしきものは審判にたへず罪人は義きものの會にたつことを得ざるなり

Therefore the wicked rise not in judgment, Nor sinners in the company of the righteous,

6 そはヱホバはただしきものの途をしりたまふ されど惡きものの途はほろびん

For Jehovah is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!
