詩篇 1

1 悪しき者のはかりごとに歩まず、罪びとの道に立たず、あざける者の座にすわらぬ人はさいわいである。

O the blessedness of that one, Who has not walked in the counsel of the wicked, And has not stood in the way of sinners, And has not sat in the seat of scorners;

2 このような人は主のおきてをよろこび、昼も夜もそのおきてを思う。

But his delight [is] in the Law of YHWH, And in His law he meditates by day and by night:

3 このような人は流れのほとりに植えられた木の時が来ると実を結び、その葉もしぼまないように、そのなすところは皆栄える。

And he has been as a tree, Planted by streams of water, That gives its fruit in its season, And its leaf does not wither, And all that he does he causes to prosper.

4 悪しき者はそうでない、風の吹き去るもみがらのようだ。

Not so the wicked: But [they are] as chaff that wind drives away!

5 それゆえ、悪しき者はさばきに耐えない。罪びとは正しい者のつどいに立つことができない。

Therefore the wicked do not rise in judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous,

6 主は正しい者の道を知られる。しかし、悪しき者の道は滅びる。

For YHWH is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!
