Salmos 1

1 Dichoso el hombre que no anda en el consejo de los malvados, ni se detiene en el camino de los pecadores, ni sienta en la silla de los burlones;

Blessed is the man who has not followed the counsel of the impious, and has not remained in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the chair of pestilence.

2 sino que su deleite está en la ley de Yahvé. En su ley medita de día y noche.

But his will is with the law of the Lord, and he will meditate on his law, day and night.

3 Será como un árbol plantado junto a las corrientes de agua, que produce su fruto en su temporada, cuya hoja tampoco se marchita. Todo lo que haga prosperará.

And he will be like a tree that has been planted beside running waters, which will provide its fruit in its time, and its leaf will not fall away, and all things whatsoever that he does will prosper.

4 Los malvados no son así, sino que son como la paja que el viento se lleva.

Not so the impious, not so. For they are like the dust that the wind casts along the face of the earth.

5 Por lo tanto, los impíos no levantarán en el juicio, ni los pecadores en la congregación de los justos.

Therefore, the impious will not prevail again in judgment, nor sinners in the council of the just.

6 Porque Yahvé conoce el camino de los justos, pero el camino de los impíos perecerá.

For the Lord knows the way of the just. And the path of the impious will pass away.
