1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:
1Õnnis on inimene, kes ei käi õelate nõu järgi ega seisa patuste tee peal ega istu pilkajate killas,
2But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night.
2vaid kel on hea meel Issanda Seadusest ja kes uurib ta Seadust ööd ja päevad.
3And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
3Siis ta on otsekui puu, mis on istutatud veeojade äärde, mis vilja annab omal ajal ja mille lehed ei närtsi; ja kõik, mis ta teeb, läheb korda.
4The wicked are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
4Aga nõnda ei ole õelad; vaid nad on nagu aganad, mida tuul laiali ajab.
5Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
5Sellepärast ei jää õelad püsima kohtus ega patused õigete koguduses.
6For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish.
6Sest Issand tunneb õigete teed; aga õelate tee läheb hukka.
