1 Salig den Mand, som ikke går efter gudløses Råd, står på Synderes Vej eller sidder i Spotteres Lag,

1 How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,Nor stand in the path of sinners,Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!

2 men har Lyst til HERRENs Lov, og som grunder på hans Lov både Dag og Nat.

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord,And in His law he meditates day and night.

3 Han er som et Træ, der, plantet ved Bække, bærer sin Frugt til rette Tid, og Bladene visner ikke: Alt, hvad han gør, får han Lykke til.

3 He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water,Which yields its fruit in its seasonAnd its leaf does not wither;And in whatever he does, he prospers.

4 De gudløse derimod er som Avner, Vinden bortvejrer.

4 The wicked are not so,But they are like chaff which the wind drives away.

5 Derfor består de gudløse ikke i Dommen og Syndere ej i retfærdiges Menighed.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 Thi HERREN kender retfærdiges Vej, men gudløses Vej brydes af. 

6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,But the way of the wicked will perish.
