Sabuurradii 1

1 Waxaa barakaysan ninkii aan ku socon talada kuwa sharka leh, Oo aan istaagin jidka dembilayaasha, Oo aan ku fadhiisan kursiga kuwa wax quudhsada.

[God] is pleased with those who do not do what [MET] wicked people advise them to do, and who do not imitate the behavior of [MET] sinful people, and who do not join in with people who (ridicule/sneer at) [God].

2 Laakiinse waxaa isaga ka farxiya sharciga Rabbiga, Oo habeen iyo maalinba sharcigiisuu ka fikiraa.

Those whom God is pleased with delight in doing the things that he has instructed/taught us to do. They read and think about Yahweh’s requirements, day and night.

3 Oo wuxuu ahaan doonaa sida geed lagu beeray durdurrada biyaha agtooda, Oo midhihiisa dhala xilligooda, Oo aan caleentiisuna engegin. Oo wax alla wuxuu sameeyoba wuu ku liibaani doonaa.

They [constantly produce/do things that please God] just like fruit trees that have been planted along the banks of a stream produce fruit at the right time every year. [Like] trees that never wither, they succeed in everything that they do.

4 Laakiinse kuwa sharka lahu sidaas ma aha, Iyaguse waxay la mid yihiin buunshaha dabayshu kaxayso.

But wicked people are not like that! Wicked people are [as worthless as] chaff that is blown away by the wind.

5 Sidaas daraaddeed kuwa sharka lahu isma dhex taagi doonaan xukunka, Dembilayaashuna sooma dhex geli doonaan kuwa xaqa ah ururkooda.

Therefore, wicked people (will not be acquitted/will be condemned) [LIT] when [God] judges people, and furthermore, sinful people will not even be present when [God] gathers righteous people together,

6 Waayo, Rabbigu waa yaqaan kuwa xaqa ah jidkooda, Laakiinse kuwa sharka ah jidkoodu waa baabbi'i doonaa.

because he guides and protects righteous people, but the path that the wicked walk on leads them to where they will be destroyed/punished [by God forever].
