स्तोत्रसंहिता 1
1 १ आशीर्वादित आहे तो मनुष्य, जो दुष्टांच्या सल्ल्याने चालत नाही, किंवा पापी जनांच्या मार्गात उभा राहत नाही, आणि थट्टा करणाऱ्यांच्या सभेत बसत नाही.
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 २ परंतु परमेश्वराच्या शास्त्रात तो आनंद मानतो, आणि त्याच्या नियमशास्त्रावर तो रात्र व दिवस ध्यान लावतो.
But, in the law of Yahweh, is his delight, —and, in his law, doth he talk with himself day and night.
3 ३ तो पाण्याच्या प्रवाहाजवळ लावलेल्या, आपल्या ऋतुत फळ देणाऱ्या, ज्याची पाने कधी कोमेजत नाहीत, अशा झाडासारखा होईल व तो जे काही करेल ते साध्य होईल.
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.
Not so, the lawless, —but as chaff which is driven about by the wind:
For this cause, shall the lawless not stand in the judgment, —nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
For Yahweh doth acknowledge the way of the righteous; but, the way of the lawless, shall vanish.
