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 who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of evil men.

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

But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in his law will 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 as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, which shall yield its fruit in its season, and its leaf shall not fall off; and whatsoever he shall do shall be prospered.

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

Not so the ungodly; —not so: but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.

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

Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgment, nor sinners in the counsel of the just.

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

For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
