Psalms 1

1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;

Svētīgs tas cilvēks, kas nestaigā bezdievīgo runās, nedz stāv uz grēcinieku ceļa, nedz sēž mēdītāju biedrībā;

2 but his delight is in the LORD’s law. On his law he meditates day and night.

Bet kam labs prāts pie Tā Kunga bauslības, un kas Viņa bauslību pārdomā dienās, naktīs.

3 He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.

Jo tas ir kā koks stādīts pie ūdens upēm, kas savus augļus nes savā laikā, un viņa lapas nesavīst, un viss, ko viņš dara, tas labi izdodas.

4 The wicked are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.

Tā nav bezdievīgiem, bet tie ir kā pelus, ko vējš izputina.

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

Tāpēc bezdievīgie nepastāvēs sodā, nedz grēcinieki taisno draudzē.

6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.

Jo Tas Kungs pazīst taisno ceļu, bet bezdievīgo ceļš ies bojā.
