Salmos 1

1 Feliz es el hombre que no sigue el consejo de los pecadores, ni va en el camino de los malvados, o se sienta con los que no le dan honor al Señor.

[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 Pero se deleita en la ley del Señor, y cuya mente está en su ley de día y de noche.

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 Será como un árbol plantado junto a arroyos de agua, que da su fruto a su tiempo, cuyas hojas siempre serán verdes; y todo lo que hace prosperará.

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 Los malvados no son así; pero son como el polvo del grano, que el viento se lleva.

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

5 Por esta causa no habrá misericordia para los pecadores cuando sean juzgados, y los malhechores no tendrán lugar entre los rectos,

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 Porque el Señor pve el camino de los rectos, pero el camino del pecador es la destrucción.

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].
