Y sawl ni rodia dedwydd yw

Y sawl ni rodia, dedwydd yw,
  Yn ol drwg ystryw gynghor;
Ni saif ar ffordd
    troseddwyr ffol,
  Nid eiste'n 'stôl y gwatwor.

Ond ei holl serch ef sydd yn rhwydd
  Ar ddeddf yr Arglwydd uchod; 
Ac ar ei ddeddf rhydd, ddydd a nos, 
  Yn ddiddos ei fyfyrdod.

Ef fydd fel pren
    ar làn dôl,
  Dwg ffrwyth amserol arno:
Ni chrina'i ddalen, a'i holl waith
  A lwydda'n berffaith iddo.

Nid felly bydd y drwg di-rus,
  Ond fel yr us ar gorwynt;
Yr hwn o'r tir a'i
    chwyth a'i chwal,
  Anwadal fydd ei helynt.

Am hyn y drwg
    ni saif mewn barn,
  O flaen y cadarn uniawn:
Na'r pechaduriaid mawr eu bar,
  Yngynulleidfa'r Cyfiawn.

Canys yr Arglwydd DDuw, fel hyn,
  A edwyn ffyrdd ffyddloniaid;
Ac ef ni âd byth i barhau
  Mo lwybrau pechaduriaid.

Can's ffordd y cyfiawn uniawn yw,
  Mae'n boddio Duw'n rhagorol;
Ond eiddo'r drwg sy'n arwain 'lawr
  I'r poenau mawr uffernol.

Whoever does not walk, happy is he,
  According to the evil of crafty advice;
Nor stand on the road
    of foolish transgressors,
  Nor sit in the seat of mockery.

But his whole affection is readily
  On the law of the Lord above;
And on his law he will bestow, day and night,
  Securely his meditation.

He will be like a tree
    by the side of a meadow,
  It will bear fruit on it in season:
His leaves will not wither, and all his work
  Will succeed perfectly for him.

Not thus shall be the evil bold one,
  But like the chaff on a hurricane;
He from the land with its
    blast shall be scattered.
  Inconstant shall be his course.

Therefore the evil
    shall not stand in judgment,
  Before the firm upright:
Nor the sinners of great voracity
  Assemble together with Righteous.

For the Lord God, thus,
  Will know the ways of the faithful;
And he is never going to preserve
  The paths of sinners.

For the way of the righteous is straight,
  It pleases God exceedingly;
But that of the wicked leads down
  To the great infernal pain.

1 How blest is he who ne'er consents
   by ill advice to walk;
 Nor stands in sinners'
     ways nor sits
   where men profanely talk.

2 But makes the perfect law of God
    his business and delight;
  Devoutly reads therein by day,
    and meditates by night.

3 Like some fair tree,
      which, fed by streams,
    with timely fruit does bend,
  He still shall flourish, and success
    all his designs attend.

4 Ungodly men and their attempts
    no lasting root shall find;
  Untimely blasted,
      and dispers'd
    like chaff before the wind.

5 Their guilt shall
      strike the wicked dumb
    before their Judge's face;
  No formal hypocrite shall then
    amongst the saints have place.

6 For God approves
      the just man's ways,

    to happiness they tend;

  But sinners, and
      the paths they tread,

    shall both in ruin, end.
