Psalm 1 — NIV vs NA-TWI

Psalm 1

NIV — New International Version Bible (NIV)

NA-TWI — Nkwa Asem (NA-TWI)

Verse 1

Blessed is the one
who does not walk in step with the wicked
or stand in the way that sinners take
or sit in the company of mockers,

Saa nhoma yi fi Paulo a esiane Kristo Yesu nti, ɔyɛ odeduani no ne yɛn nuabarima Timoteo nkyɛn. Yɛde kɔma yɛn adamfo ne yɛn yɔnko Filemon

Verse 2

but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,
and who meditates on his law day and night.

ne asafo a wohyia wɔ wo fi no ne yɛn nuabea Apia ne yɛn yɔnko sraani Arkipo no.

Verse 3

That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither—
whatever they do prospers.

Adom ne asomdwoe a efi yɛn Agya Nyankopɔn ne Awurade Yesu Kristo nka mo.

Verse 4

Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.

Onua Filemon, bere biara a mebɔ mpae no, mebɔ bi ma wo na meda me Nyankopɔn nso ase.

Verse 5

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

Mete dɔ a wodɔ Onyankopɔn nkurɔfo ne gyidi a wowɔ wɔ Awurade Yesu mu no.

Verse 6

For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
