Chapter 1

1:1 [hgb]  不 从 恶 人 的 计 谋 ， 不 站 罪 人 的 道 路 ， 不 坐 亵 慢 人 的 座 位 。 
    [kjv]  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.
    [bbe]  Happy is the man who does not go in the company of sinners, or take his place in the way of evil-doers, or in the seat of those who do not give honour to the Lord.
1:2 [hgb]  惟 喜 爱 耶 和 华 的 律 法 ， 昼 夜 思 想 ， 这 人 便 为 有 福 。 
    [kjv]  But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate¹ day and night.
    [bbe]  But whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and whose mind is on his law day and night.
1:3 [hgb]  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 。 
    [kjv]  And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth² his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither³; and whatsoever⁴ he doeth shall prosper⁵.
    [bbe]  He will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, which gives its fruit at the right time, whose leaves will ever be green; and he will do well in all his undertakings⁶.
1:4 [hgb]  恶 人 并 不 是 这 样 ， 乃 像 糠 秕 被 风 吹 散 。 
    [kjv]  The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff⁷ which the wind driveth away.
    [bbe]  The evil-doers are not so; but are like the dust from the grain, which the wind takes away.
1:5 [hgb]  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 。 
    [kjv]  Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment⁸, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
    [bbe]  For this cause there will be no mercy for sinners when they are judged, and the evil-doers will have no place among the upright,
1:6 [hgb]  因 为 耶 和 华 知 道 义 人 的 道 路 。 恶 人 的 道 路 ， 却 必 灭 亡 。 
    [kjv]  For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
    [bbe]  Because the Lord sees the way of the upright, but the end of the sinner is destruction.
