Psalms 1
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1BOOK I HAPPY IS the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked, nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seat of the scornful.
1[Beatus vir qui non abiit in consilio impiorum, et in via peccatorum non stetit, et in cathedra pestilentiæ non sedit;
2But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law doth he meditate day and night.
2sed in lege Domini voluntas ejus, et in lege ejus meditabitur die ac nocte.
3And he shall be like a tree planted by streams of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in its season, and whose leaf doth not wither; and in whatsoever he doeth he shall prosper.
3Et erit tamquam lignum quod plantatum est secus decursus aquarum, quod fructum suum dabit in tempore suo: et folium ejus non defluet; et omnia quæcumque faciet prosperabuntur.
4Not so the wicked; but they are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
4Non sic impii, non sic; sed tamquam pulvis quem projicit ventus a facie terræ.
5Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
5Ideo non resurgent impii in judicio, neque peccatores in concilio justorum:
6For the LORD regardeth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked shall perish.
6quoniam novit Dominus viam justorum, et iter impiorum peribit.]
