Book 1 (Ps 1-41 are poems by David about the first Adoni in Eden, the coming Adonay, and the need for Justification through kindness of Jehovah)
Psalm 1
Duty to convert foreigners to proselyte
1 Happy is the man who walk on the road to the settlement of sinners, to sit down with the wicked that may mock him, even to stand up for advice/councel unto them;
2 - because, his delight is in the law (torah) of YahoVih daily, and he mutters/ponders on the law/decalogue (torah) by night:
3 for a transplanted/grafted tree, to produce leaves and fruits in its time, water should be given through channel, and those that would have got wilted will prosper;
4 - and just as chaff will be dispersed/shaken away, so shall it be unto the wicked from the SPIRIT.
5 the Righteous will rise up for the verdicts against sinners, in the community/fixtures of the wicked;
6 because the Righteous knows the way of YahoVah but the wicked is lost on the way.
I love this Psalm, this translation makes reading difficult. Without conjunctions it's difficult to make sense of the verse, like vs 1 above.
ReplyDeleteThe edit work is still ungoing. But, to ve sincere, Hebrew translation is difficult because we have less words and u mostly read what the translator want u to read.
