Psalms 1

1 Blessid is the man, that yede not in the councel of wickid men; and stood not in the weie of synneris, and sat not in the chaier of pestilence.

Blagoslovljen je človek, ki ne hodi po nasvetu brezbožnih niti ne stoji na poti grešnikov niti ne poseda na sedežu posmehljivcev.

2 But his wille is in the lawe of the Lord; and he schal bithenke in the lawe of hym dai and nyyt.

Temveč je njegovo veselje v Gospodovi postavi in o njegovi postavi premišljuje podnevi in ponoči.

3 And he schal be as a tree, which is plauntid bisidis the rennyngis of watris; which tre schal yyue his fruyt in his tyme. And his leef schal not falle doun; and alle thingis which euere he schal do schulen haue prosperite.

On bo kakor drevo, posajeno ob rekah vodá, ki prinaša svoj sad ob svojem času. Prav tako njegovo listje ne bo ovenelo in karkoli dela, bo uspelo.

4 Not so wickid men, not so; but thei ben as dust, which the wynd castith awei fro the face of erthe.

Brezbožni niso takšni, temveč so kakor pleve, ki jih veter odnaša.

5 Therfor wickid men risen not ayen in doom; nethir synneres in the councel of iust men.

Zato brezbožni ne bodo obstali na sodbi niti grešniki v skupnosti pravičnih.

6 For the Lord knowith the weie of iust men; and the weie of wickid men schal perische.

Kajti Gospod pozna pot pravičnih, toda pot brezbožnih bo izginila.
