Psalms 1

1 How happy the man, who hath not walked in the counsel of the lawless, —and, in the way of sinners, hath not stood, and, in the seat of scoffers, hath not sat;

How blessed! [is] the person who - not he walks in [the] counsel of wicked [people] and in [the] way of sinners not he stands and in [the] seat of mockers not he sits.

2 But, in the law of Yahweh, is his delight, —and, in his law, doth he talk with himself day and night.

That except [is] in [the] law of Yahweh delight his and in law his he meditates by day and night.

3 So doth he become like a tree planted by streams of waters, —that yieldeth, its fruit, in its season, whose leaf, also doth not wither, and, whatsoever he doeth, prospereth.

And he is like a tree planted at streams of water which fruit its - it gives at appropriate time its and leafage its not it withers and all that he does it succeeds.

4 Not so, the lawless, —but as chaff which is driven about by the wind:

Not [are] so the wicked [people] that except [they are] like the chaff which it drives about it wind.

5 For this cause, shall the lawless not stand in the judgment, —nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

There-fore - not they will stand wicked [people] in the judgment and sinners in [the] congregation of righteous [people].

6 For Yahweh doth acknowledge the way of the righteous; but, the way of the lawless, shall vanish.

For [is] knowing Yahweh [the] way of righteous [people] and [the] way of wicked [people] it will perish.
