Psalmi 1

1 Blagoslovljen je človek, ki ne hodi po nasvetu brezbožnih niti ne stoji na poti grešnikov niti ne poseda na sedežu posmehljivcev.

Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers.

2 Temveč je njegovo veselje v Gospodovi postavi in o njegovi postavi premišljuje podnevi in ponoči.

But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 On bo kakor drevo, posajeno ob rekah vodá, ki prinaša svoj sad ob svojem času. Prav tako njegovo listje ne bo ovenelo in karkoli dela, bo uspelo.

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in season; its leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he doeth shall prosper.

4 Brezbožni niso takšni, temveč so kakor pleve, ki jih veter odnaša.

The ungodly [are] not so: but [are] like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Zato brezbožni ne bodo obstali na sodbi niti grešniki v skupnosti pravičnih.

Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 Kajti Gospod pozna pot pravičnih, toda pot brezbožnih bo izginila.

For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
