مزامیر 1

۱ 1 خوشابحال کسی‌که به مشورت شریران نرود و به راه گناهکاران نایستد، و درمجلس استهزاکنندگان ننشیند؛

[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].

۲ 2 بلکه رغبت اودر شریعت خداوند است و روز و شب درشریعت او تفکر می‌کند.

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.

۳ 3 پس مثل درختی نشانده نزد نهرهای آب خواهد بود، که میوه خودرا در موسمش می‌دهد، و برگش پژمرده نمی گردد و هر‌آنچه می‌کند نیک انجام خواهدبود.

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.

۴ 4 شریران چنین نیستند، بلکه مثل کاهند که بادآن را پراکنده می‌کند.

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

۵ 5 لهذا شریران در داوری نخواهند ایستاد و نه گناهکاران در جماعت عادلان.

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,

۶ 6 زیرا خداوند طریق عادلان را می‌داند، ولی طریق گناهکاران هلاک خواهد شد.

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].
