< Psalmi 1 >
1 Blago èovjeku koji ne ide na vijeæe bezbožnièko, i na putu grješnièkom ne stoji, i u društvu nevaljalijeh ljudi ne sjedi,
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:
2 Nego mu je omilio zakon Gospodnji i o zakonu njegovu misli dan i noæ!
But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 On je kao drvo usaðeno kraj potoka, koje rod svoj donosi u svoje vrijeme, i kojemu list ne vene: što god radi, u svemu napreduje.
And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4 Nijesu taki bezbožnici, nego su kao prah koji rasipa vjetar.
The wicked are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5 Zato se neæe bezbožnici održati na sudu, ni grješnici na zboru pravednièkom.
Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 Jer Gospod zna put pravednièki; a put bezbožnièki propašæe.
For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish.
