Psalmi 1

1 Blago èovjeku koji ne ide na vijeæe bezbožnièko, i na putu grješnièkom ne stoji, i u društvu nevaljalijeh ljudi ne sjedi,

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 Nego mu je omilio zakon Gospodnji i o zakonu njegovu misli dan i noæ!

But, in the law of Yahweh, is his delight, —and, in his law, doth he talk with himself 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.

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 Nijesu taki bezbožnici, nego su kao prah koji rasipa vjetar.

Not so, the lawless, —but as chaff which is driven about by the wind:

5 Zato se neæe bezbožnici održati na sudu, ni grješnici na zboru pravednièkom.

For this cause, shall the lawless not stand in the judgment, —nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 Jer Gospod zna put pravednièki; a put bezbožnièki propašæe.

For Yahweh doth acknowledge the way of the righteous; but, the way of the lawless, shall vanish.
