Psalm 1
Authorized (King James) Version
Psalm 1
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor standeth in the way of sinners,
nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord;
and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
that bringeth forth his fruit in his season;
his leaf also shall not wither;
and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so:
but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous:
but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Psalm 1
1 Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor stands in the path of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and in His law he meditates day and night.
3 He will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
that brings forth its fruit in its season;
its leaf will not wither,
and whatever he does will prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so,
but are like the chaff
which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the ungodly will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the ungodly will perish.

LIBRO I
El justo y los pecadores
1 Bienaventurado el hombre
que no anda en compañía de malvados,
ni se detiene a hablar con pecadores,
ni se sienta a conversar con blasfemos.
2 Que, por el contrario,
se deleita en la ley del Señor,
y día y noche medita en ella.
3 Ese hombre es como un árbol
plantado junto a los arroyos:(A)
llegado el momento da su fruto,
y sus hojas no se marchitan.
¡En todo lo que hace, prospera.
4 Con los malvados no pasa lo mismo;
¡son como el tamo que se lleva el viento!
5 Por eso los malvados y pecadores
no tienen arte ni parte en el juicio
ni en las reuniones de los justos.
6 El Señor conoce el camino de los justos,
pero la senda de los malos termina mal.

1 Blessed (A)is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the [a]ungodly,

4 The ungodly are not so,
But are (G)like the chaff which the wind drives away.
