1:1 不从恶人的计谋，不站罪人的道路，不坐亵慢人的座位。
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.　

1:2 惟喜爱耶和华的律法，昼夜思想，这人便为有福。
But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.　

1:3 他要像一棵树栽在溪水旁，按时候结果子，叶子也不枯干。凡他所作的，尽都顺利。
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.　

1:4 恶人并不是这样，乃像糠毗被风吹散。
The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.　

1:5 因此当审判的时候，恶人必站立不住，罪人在义人的会中，也是如此。
Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.　

1:6 因为耶和华知道义人的道路。恶人的道路，却必灭亡。
For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
