Psalms 1
1
1O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;
2But — in the law of Jehovah [is] his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:
3And he hath been as a tree, Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season, And its leaf doth not wither, And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.
4Not so the wicked: But — as chaff that wind driveth away!
5Therefore the wicked rise not in judgment, Nor sinners in the company of the righteous,
6For Jehovah is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!

BOOK 1
1Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stand on the path of sinners,
nor sit in the seat of scoffers;
2but his delight is in Yahweh’s#1:2 “Yahweh” is God’s proper Name, sometimes rendered “Lord” (all caps) in other translations. law.
On his law he meditates day and night.
3He 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.
4The wicked are not so,
but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6For Yahweh knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked shall perish.
