1.1 Incipit AUG. Liber iste intitulatur apud Hebræos Liber hymnorum, hac ratione, quia hymnus est ubi habentur verba et laus cum cantico, quod in psalmis invenitur. Intitulatur etiam, secundum quosdam, liber Soliloquiorum: quod ideo videtur fieri, quia illud quod aliquis secum rimatur, et a nullo discit, nisi a veritate sibi interius præsidente, soliloquium dicitur, verbi gratia, quemadmodum beatus Augustinus secum de natura animæ, et de natura Dei investigavit, eodem modo potest dici Propheta secum investigasse de incarnatione Filii Dei, et de reparatione humani generis. Rex David et propheta, cum prospere regnaret, volens cultum Dei magnificare, cum arcam a Philisthæis redditam, longo tempore post incertis sedibus vagantem, tandem in Jerusalem reduceret, nudus cum cithara præcedebat II Reg. 6.: sed et quatuor millia virorum elegerat, qui, non solum voce, sed etiam instrumentis musicis, psalmos canerent: quibus præposuit quatuor, Asaph, Idithun, Eman, Ethan, vel filios Core, qui a patris scelere vel sacrilegio degenerantes quem ignis consumpserat Num. 16., in cultu Dei devotissimi perstiterunt. HIERON. Psalterium est quoddam musicum instrumentum in modum litteræ compositum: et ab eo musico instrumento per quod modulatum fuit præsens opus nomen sibi sumpsit. Psalterium apud Hebræos vocatur nebel, apud Græcos,, apud Latinos vero organum. Multi dicunt David non fecisse omnes psalmos, eo quod quidam ex ipsis intitulantur in persona aliorum. Sed, ut dicit beatus Hieronymus, non sunt audiendi in hoc. Nam David composuit omnes psalmos: modo etiam apposuit, in quo multos auxiliatores habuit, quibus præfecit quatuor, videlicet Eman, Ethan, Asaph et Idithun. Divino consilio hoc fuit factum, ut psalmi intitularentur in personis aliorum, vel propter interpretationem nominum tantum, vel propter negotium, vel propter utrumque. Propter interpretationem nominum tantum, ut in persona Idithun; propter negotium, ut in persona Aggæi et Zachariæ; propter utrumque, ut in persona Salomonis; Idithun, Asaph, filii Core et cæteri hujusmodi, non fuerunt auctores psalmorum, sed præpositi artificibus qui psalmos personabant tribus modis: vel humana voce, vel musicis instrumentis, vel communiter utroque modo. Et hoc dupliciter, vel post vocem instrumento, vel post instrumentum voce: unde nomina illorum ut honorem de ministerio sumerent, titulis inseruntur maxime pro significatione rerum. Psalmus vero est instrumenti sonus, canticum humanæ vocis cantus in laudem Dei; psalmi canticum, cum post instrumentum vox, psalmus cantici, cum post vocem instrumentum. CASS. Solet quæri cur præ aliis Scripturis psalmi in Ecclesia legantur? Quod ideo est quia antiquitus apud Hebræos mos iste in templo Dei erat. Vel, quia psalmi plus mysteriorum quam cæteræ Scripturæ continent, et breviter multa dicunt, in quibus omnis lex et prophetæ et Evangelium constat. CASS. Prophetia est inspiratio vel revelatio divina, quæ eventus rerum vel per facta, vel per dicta immobili veritate pronuntiat, unde prophetia visio, propheta videns. Multis autem modis hæc gratia data est: vel per operationes hominum, ut fuit arca Nœ et sacrificium Abrahæ, et transitus maris Rubri; vel per nativitates, ut Esau et Jacob, qui futura significabant; vel per loquentes angelos, sicut locuti sunt Abrahæ, Lot et aliis; vel per visiones, sicut Isaiæ et Ezechieli, et cæteris; vel per somnia, sicut Salomoni, Joseph et Danieli; vel per nubem et vocem de cœlo, ut Moysi; vel adhuc aliis modis. David autem nullo horum, sed cœlesti aspiratione intus edoctus, Spiritu in eo loquente, completus est, ut in I Reg.: Directus est Spiritus Domini in David I Reg. 16.. Et Dominus: Si David in spiritu vocat eum Dominum, quomodo filius ejus est? Matth. 22. Spiritus autem sanctus sic datus est prophetis, ut aliquando pro peccatis recederet et placatus rediret; et sicut Petrus ait: Non voluntate humana allata est aliquando prophetia, sed, Spiritu sancto inspirati, locuti sunt sancti homines Dei II Pet. 1.. Non sunt autem illi a munere prophetiæ alieni, quibus data est facultas intelligendi vel interpretandi Scripturas. HIERON. Multa genera sunt christorum: patriarchæ dicti sunt christi, ut: Nolite tangere christos meos Psal. 104.; in Parabolis, dicuntur christi omnes qui de Ægypto egressi sunt. Chrisma in Exodo fit, unde sacerdotes uncti; est aliud unguentum, quo reges inunguntur; sed hoc duobus modis, quia si David est et Salomon, id est, forti manu et pacificus, ungitur cornu; si Jehu et Azahel, lenticula, quod est vas fictile. Sed et Cyrus, rex Persarum et Medorum, qui Isræl relaxavit, christus est, secundum illud: Hæc dicit Dominus christo meo Cyro Isa. 45., quod non sinunt sequentia de Salvatore accipi, ut quidam putant. Est unguentum propheticum, quo præcipitur Eliæ ut ungat Elisæum in prophetam III Reg. 19.; super omnia est unguentum spirituale, quod dicitur oleum exsultationis, quo Christus unctus est præ participibus, qui habent chrisma baptismi. Quod si perdat quis, non desperet; quia de separando chrismate scribitur in Levitico Lev. 13., quod cum lepra alicujus fuerit mundata, mittat ei sacerdos oleum in manu sinistra, et cætera quæ ibi dicuntur, et ipse vocetur christus Dei. Hoc autem restat quod idem homo frequenter ungitur, ne sit occasio ruinæ negligenti. Sufficit enim leproso ut, post primum unguentum perditum, ungatur secundo; sed ille sæpe ungitur qui semper proficit: et, de oleo leprosi, venit ad unguentum populi; inde ad sacerdotale; de quo ad chrisma pontificis; a pontifice ad regem; a rege ad patriarchas; a patriarchis ad Christum. CASS. Sicut prophetia fit diversis modis, ita et diversis temporibus. Est igitur alia de præsenti, ut Elisabeth: Unde mihi hoc, ut veniat mater Domini? etc. Luc. 1. De præterito, ut Moyses: In principio, creavit Deus cœlum et terram Gen. 1.. De futuro, ut: Ecce Virgo concipiet, etc. Isa. 7.. Item prophetia alia est secundum præscientiam Dei, quam necesse est omnibus modis impleri, ut: Ecce Virgo concipiet, etc. Alia secundum comminationem, ut: Quadraginta dies, et Ninive subvertetur Jonæ 3.. Notandum igitur quod propheta aliquando loquitur indiscrete de futuris quasi de præsentibus; aliquando de præteritis, aliquando etiam proprie de futuris: quod ideo fit, quoniam omnia dictante Spiritu sancto dicit, cui sunt omnia nota, sive præterita, sive futura, tanquam præsentia. REMIG. Liber iste ex centum quinquaginta psalmis, non sine altioris mysterii ratione, consistit. Hic enim numerus mysteriis celeberrimus. Constat enim ex octogenario et septuagenario, quibus ex octonario et septenario principium et significatio est. Octonarius enim octavam resurrectionem significat: quia cum sex sint ætates viventium, septima morientium, octava resurgentium erit. Per septenarium vero, hujus vitæ tempus significatur, quod septem dierum repetitione agitur. Recte ergo tali psalmorum numero liber iste compositus est, quia sic in hujus vitæ septenario operari ac vivere nos docet, ut in octava resurrectionis stolam gloriæ consequamur. Vel ideo quia per octonarium Novum Testamentum significatur: octoadi enim patres Novi Testamenti deserviunt, observantes diem octavam resurrectionis Christi, id est, Dominicam, octavas sanctorum, exspectantes octavam resurrectionis mortuorum. Per septenarium vero Vetus Testamentum, quia hebdomadi, id est septenario, patres Veteris Testamenti servierunt, observantes septimum diem, septimam septimanam, septimum annum et quinquagesimum, qui septenis annorum hebdomadibus texitur, id est jubilæum: unde Salomon: Da partes septem, necnon et octo Eccl. 11.. Bene igitur hoc numero psalmorum liber iste editus est, cujus partes utriusque Testamenti doctrinam et mandata continent. AUG. Item per tres quinquagenas triplex fit psalmorum distinctio, propter tres status Christianæ religionis significandos: primus pœnitentiæ, in qua et prima psalmorum quinquagena terminatur, scilicet: Miserere mei Deus; secundus justitiæ, in qua et secunda quinquagena: Misericordiam et judicium cantabo tibi; tertius status vitæ æternæ, in cujus laudem tertia quinquagena finitur, scilicet: Omnis spiritus laudet Dominum. ID. Unus est liber Psalmorum, non quinque, ut in Actibus apostolorum legitur: Sicut scriptum est in libro Psalmorum Act. 1.. Hieronymus tamen dicit quinque libros, id est, quinque distinctiones quæ fiunt per fiat, fiat. Ordo psalmorum ab ordine historiæ discordat, quia ante peccavit David cum uxore Uriæ, et de pœnitentia cecinit: Miserere mei, Deus, quam filius ejus eum persequeretur et cecinerit: Domine, quid multiplicati; sed ab Esdra propheta instinctu divino ita ordinari creduntur. Materia est integer Christus, sponsus et sponsa. Intentio, homines in Adam deformatos Christo novo homini conformare. Modus tractandi: Quandoque agit de Christo, secundum quod caput est, aliquando secundum corpus, aliquando secundum utrumque. Secundum quod caput, tripliciter: quia vel secundum divinitatem, ut: Tecum principium, etc.; aliquando secundum humanitatem, ut: Ego dormivi, etc., aliquando per transsumptionem, ut quando utitur voce membrorum, sicut ibi: Longe a salute mea, etc. Item de Ecclesia tribus modis: aliquando secundum perfectos, aliquando secundum imperfectos, aliquando secundum malos: qui sunt in Ecclesia corpore, non mente; numero, non merito; nomine, non numine. Beatus vir qui non abiit, etc. AUG., Enarr. in Psal., tom. 3. Ordo, abiit Adam cum a Deo recessit; stetit, cum delectatus est peccato; sedit, cum in superbia confirmatus redire non potuit, nisi per istum liberatus, qui nil horum habuit. Abiit Adam cum persuasioni diaboli consensit; stetit, dum pomum comedit; sedit, dum se excusavit: Mulier quam dedisti mihi me seduxit. Gen. 3.. Ad similitudinem exsulantium, qui dum sunt in via facilius revocantur, dum jam stant difficilius: demum difficillime, dum ibi magistri et domini effecti sunt. REMI. Peccatur cogitatione, actu et verbis docendo. CASS. Impius in Deum, peccator in se, pestilens in proximum. In cathedra dans exemplum peccandi. CASS. Thronus regum, tribunal judicum, cathedra proprie doctorum. Ibid. Quasi ita ait: Vos qui cecidistis per primum Adam, conformamini huic secundo: quia beatus primo contrarius

1.1 Incipit AUG. Liber this intitulatur apud Hebræos Liber hymnorum, hac ratione, because hymnus it_is where habentur words and laus when/with cantico, that in psalmis invenitur. Intitulatur etiam, after/second quosdam, liber Soliloquiorum: that ideo videtur fieri, because it/this/that that aliwho/any secum rimatur, and from nullo discit, except from with_truth sibi interius præsidente, soliloquium it_is_said, verbi gratia, quemadmodum beatus Augustinus secum about natura soul, and about natura of_God investigavit, eodem modo potest dici Propheta secum investigasse about incarnatione Children of_God, and about reparatione humani generis. Rex David and propheta, when/with prospere regnaret, volens cultum of_God magnificare, when/with the_box from Philisthæis redditam, longo tempore after incertis sedibus vagantem, tandem in Yerusalem reduceret, naked when/with cithara præcedebat II Reg. 6.: but and four thousands of_men elegerat, qui, not/no solum voce, but also instrumentis musicis, psalmos canerent: to_whom præposuit four, Asaph, Idithun, Eman, Ethan, or filios Core, who from of_the_father scelere or sacrilegio degenerantes which fire consumpserat Num. 16., in cultu of_God devotissimi perstiterunt. HIERON. Psalterium it_is quoddam musicum instrumentum in modum litteræ compositum: and away by_him musico instrumento through that modulatum it_was præsens work/need name sibi sumpsit. Psalterium apud Hebræos is_called nebel, apud Græcos,, apud Latinos indeed/however organum. Multi they_say David not/no fecisse everyone psalmos, by_him that some from ipsis intitulantur in persona aliorum. Sed, as he_says beatus Hieronymus, not/no are audiendi in hoc. Nam David composuit everyone psalmos: modo also apposuit, in quo multos auxiliatores habuit, to_whom præfecit four, videlicet Eman, Ethan, Asaph and Idithun. Divino consilio this it_was factum, as psalmi intitularentur in personis aliorum, or because interpretationem nominum tantum, or because negotium, or because utrumque. Because interpretationem nominum tantum, as in persona Idithun; because negotium, as in persona Aggæi and Zachariæ; because utrumque, as in persona Salomonis; Idithun, Asaph, children Core and cæteri huyusmodi, not/no fuerunt auctores psalmorum, but præpositi artificibus who psalmos personabant three modis: or humana voce, or musicis instrumentis, or communiter both modo. And this dupliciter, or after voice instrumento, or after instrumentum voce: whence nomina illorum as honorem about ministerio sumerent, titulis inseruntur maxime for significatione rerum. Psalm indeed/however it_is instrumenti sonus, canticum humanæ vocis cantus in laudem of_God; psalmi canticum, when/with after instrumentum vox, psalmus cantici, when/with after voice instrumentum. CASS. Solet quæri cur præ aliis Scripturis psalmi in Ecclesia legantur? That ideo it_is because antiquitus apud Hebræos mos this in temple of_God was. Vel, because psalmi plus mysteriorum how cæteræ Scripturæ continent, and breviter fine they_say, in to_whom everyone the_law and the_prophets and the_Gospel constat. CASS. Prophetia it_is inspiratio or revelatio divina, which eventus rerum or through facta, or through dicta immobili with_truth pronuntiat, whence prophetia visio, a_prophet videns. Multis however modis these_things gratia data it_is: or through operationes of_men, as it_was box Nœ and sacrificium Abrahæ, and transitus of_the_sea Rubri; or through nativitates, as Esau and Yacob, who futura significabant; or through loquentes angelos, like locuti are Abrahæ, Lot and aliis; or through visiones, like Isaiæ and Ezechieli, and cæteris; or through somnia, like Salomoni, Yoseph and Danieli; or through nubem and voice about cœlo, as of_Moses; or adhuc aliis modis. David however nullo of_these, but cœlesti aspiratione intus edoctus, Spiritu in by_him loquente, completus it_is, as in I Reg.: Directus it_is Spiritus Master in David I Reg. 16.. And Master: When/But_if David in in_spirit vocat him the_Master, how son his est? Matth. 22. Spiritus however sanctus so datus it_is prophetis, as aliquando for sins recederet and placatus rediret; and like Petrus he_said: Not/No voluntate humana allata it_is aliquando prophetia, sed, Spiritu holy inspirati, locuti are sancti homines of_God II Pet. 1.. Not/No are however them from munere prophetiæ alieni, to_whom data it_is facultas intelligendi or interpretandi Scripturas. HIERON. Multa genera are christorum: patriarchæ dicti are christi, ut: Don't tangere christos mine Psal. 104.; in Parabolis, they_sayur christi everyone who about Ægypto egressi are. Chrisma in Exodo fit, whence priests uncti; it_is something_else unguentum, quo reges inunguntur; but this duobus modis, because when/but_if David it_is and Salomon, id it_is, forti manu and pacificus, ungitur cornu; when/but_if Yehu and Azahel, lenticula, that it_is vas fictile. But and Cyrus, king Persarum and Medorum, who Isræl relaxavit, christus it_is, after/second illud: This he_says Master christo mine Cyro Isa. 45., that not/no sinunt sequentia about Salvatore accipi, as some putant. Est unguentum propheticum, quo præcipitur Eliæ as ungat Elisæum in prophetam III Reg. 19.; over everything it_is unguentum spirituale, that it_is_said oil exsultationis, quo Christus anointed it_is præ participibus, who habent chrisma baptismi. That when/but_if perdat quis, not/no desperet; because about separando chrismate scribitur in Levitico Lev. 13., that when/with lepra alicuyus has_been mundata, mittat to_him priest oil in by_hand sinistra, and cætera which there they_sayur, and exactly_that/himself vocetur christus of_God. This however restat that idem human frequenter ungitur, not let_it_be occasio fall/ruins negligenti. Sufficit because leproso ut, after first unguentum perditum, ungatur secundo; but he sæpe ungitur who always proficit: et, about oleo leprosi, he_came to unguentum of_the_people; hence to sacerdotale; about quo to chrisma pontificis; from pontifice to the_king; from rege to patriarchas; from patriarchis to Christum. CASS. Sicut prophetia fit diversis modis, so/thus and diversis temporibus. Est igitur other about præsenti, as Elisabeth: Unde to_me hoc, as let_him_come mater Domini? etc. Luc. 1. De præterito, as Moyses: In principio, created God cœlum and the_earth/the_land Gen. 1.. De futuro, ut: Behold girl/damsel concipiet, etc. Isa. 7.. Item prophetia other it_is after/second præscientiam of_God, how necesse it_is to_all modis impleri, ut: Behold girl/damsel concipiet, etc. Alia after/second comminationem, ut: Quadraginta days, and Ninive subvertetur Yonæ 3.. Notandum igitur that a_prophet aliquando loquitur indiscrete about futuris as_if about præsentibus; aliquando about præteritis, aliquando also properly about futuris: that ideo fit, since/because everything dictante Spiritu holy dicit, to_whom are everything nota, if/or præterita, if/or futura, as_if præsentia. REMIG. Liber this from hundred quinquaginta psalmis, not/no without altioris mysterii ratione, consistit. Hic because numerus mysteriis celeberrimus. Constat because from octogenario and septuagenario, to_whom from octonario and septenario principium and significatio it_is. Octonarius because octavam resurrectionem significat: because when/with sex sint ætates viventium, septima morientium, octava resurgentium will_be. Per septenarium indeed/yet, huyus of_life tempus significatur, that seven dierum repetitione agitur. Recte therefore tali psalmorum number liber this compositus it_is, because so in huyus of_life septenario operari and vivere we teaches, as in octava resurrectionis stolam gloriæ consequamur. Vel ideo because through octonarium Novum Testamentum significatur: octoadi because patres Novi Testamenti deserviunt, observing diem octavam resurrectionis of_Christ, id it_is, Dominicam, octavas holyrum, exspectantes octavam resurrectionis mortuorum. Per septenarium indeed/however Vetus Testamentum, because hebdomadi, id it_is septenario, patres Veteris Testamenti servierunt, observing septimum diem, septimam septimanam, septimum a_year and quinquagesimum, who septenis annorum hebdomadibus texitur, id it_is yubilæum: whence Salomon: Give partes septem, necnon and octo Eccl. 11.. Bene igitur this number psalmorum liber this editus it_is, cuyus partes utriusque Testamenti doctrinam and mandata continent. AUG. Item through tres quinquagenas triplex fit psalmorum distinctio, because tres status of_Christanæ religionis significandos: primus pœnitentiæ, in which and the_first psalmorum quinquagena terminatur, scilicet: Miserere my/mine God; secundus justitiæ, in which and secunda quinquagena: Misericordiam and judgement cantabo to_you; tertius status of_life æternæ, in cuyus laudem tertia quinquagena finitur, scilicet: Everyone spirit laudet the_Master. ID. Unus it_is liber Psalmorum, not/no five, as in Actibus apostolorum legitur: Sicut scriptum it_is in libro Psalmorum Act. 1.. Hieronymus tamen he_says five libros, id it_is, five distinctiones which fiunt through fiat, fiat. Ordo psalmorum away ordine historiæ discordat, because before I_have_sinnedt David when/with uxore Uriæ, and about pœnitentia cecinit: Miserere my/mine, God, how son his him persequeretur and cecinerit: Master, what multiplicati; but away Esdra a_prophet instinctu divino so/thus ordinari creduntur.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-unknown

אַ֥שְֽׁרֵי

(Some words not found in UHB: blessed the=man which/who not walk in/on/at/with,advice_of wicked and,in/on/at/with,way_of sinners not stand and,in/on/at/with,seat_of mockers not sit )

The man described as happy is someone that others admire and desire to be like. Happy here can be a congratulatory term. Alternate translation: “Admirable” or “Praised”

אַ֥שְֽׁרֵי־הָ⁠אִ֗ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֤ר ׀ לֹ֥א הָלַךְ֮ בַּ⁠עֲצַ֪ת רְשָׁ֫עִ֥ים וּ⁠בְ⁠דֶ֣רֶךְ חַ֭טָּאִים לֹ֥א עָמָ֑ד וּ⁠בְ⁠מוֹשַׁ֥ב לֵ֝צִ֗ים לֹ֣א יָשָֽׁב

(Some words not found in UHB: blessed the=man which/who not walk in/on/at/with,advice_of wicked and,in/on/at/with,way_of sinners not stand and,in/on/at/with,seat_of mockers not sit )

In some languages it may be more natural to place the declaration of the state of the man at the end of the verse after the description of the characteristics that he avoids. However, starting the psalm with the exclamation Happy was an intentional poetic decision by the author, who intended to set the mood of the psalm. Translators should consider how their language might start the psalm with the same sort of praising exclamation. Alternate translation: “The man who does not walk in the advice of the wicked ones, and stands not in the pathway with sinners, and sits not in the seat of mockers is happy.”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

הָ⁠אִ֗ישׁ

the=man

The man here may refer first to the ideal Israelite king while also having a general meaning referring to a typical righteous person. If your readers would not understand the man in a general way, you may choose a term that gives a broader interpretation. One possible way to do this may be by not using a definite article. Alternate translation: “is a man” or “is the person” or “is a person”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor

לֹ֥א הָלַךְ֮ בַּ⁠עֲצַ֪ת רְשָׁ֫עִ֥ים וּ⁠בְ⁠דֶ֣רֶךְ חַ֭טָּאִים לֹ֥א עָמָ֑ד וּ⁠בְ⁠מוֹשַׁ֥ב לֵ֝צִ֗ים לֹ֣א יָשָֽׁב

not walk not (Some words not found in UHB: blessed the=man which/who not walk in/on/at/with,advice_of wicked and,in/on/at/with,way_of sinners not stand and,in/on/at/with,seat_of mockers not sit )

It may be helpful to read these three phrases in an inverted way. That way the negative trajectory that the happy man avoids can be more clearly seen. Consider: “Unhappy is the man who walks in the advice of the wicked ones and then who stands in the pathway of sinners and then who sits in the seat of scoffers.” The meaning of each of these parts of this extended metaphor is expanded in later notes, but translators should see a trajectory of worsening character that a happy man avoids.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor

לֹ֥א הָלַךְ֮ בַּ⁠עֲצַ֪ת רְשָׁ֫עִ֥ים

not walk not (Some words not found in UHB: blessed the=man which/who not walk in/on/at/with,advice_of wicked and,in/on/at/with,way_of sinners not stand and,in/on/at/with,seat_of mockers not sit )

Here, walks refers to a man doing the things that wicked ones suggest that he does. This is the beginning of a pattern of doing wrong. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make the image clear or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “does not walk into sin that wicked people suggest” or “never does what wicked people suggest”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor

וּ⁠בְ⁠דֶ֣רֶךְ חַ֭טָּאִים לֹ֥א עָמָ֑ד

and,in/on/at/with,way_of (Some words not found in UHB: blessed the=man which/who not walk in/on/at/with,advice_of wicked and,in/on/at/with,way_of sinners not stand and,in/on/at/with,seat_of mockers not sit )

Here, stands not in the pathway of sinners refers to not copying how sinners continually live their lives, that is, their sinful habits. Standing means joining with sinners. The pathway means habits or how they live. Not only does the happy man not do what the wicked say, but doing what sinners do does not become the way in which he lives his life. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make the image clear or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and does not stand with sinners in the path of sinning” or “and does not make sinning a habit”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor

וּ⁠בְ⁠מוֹשַׁ֥ב לֵ֝צִ֗ים לֹ֣א יָשָֽׁב

(Some words not found in UHB: blessed the=man which/who not walk in/on/at/with,advice_of wicked and,in/on/at/with,way_of sinners not stand and,in/on/at/with,seat_of mockers not sit )

Here, sits not in the seat of scoffers means to not become like people who spend their time mocking people, things, and God. By avoiding the previous two progressions towards a sinful life, the happy man avoids this final state where he would be just like the wicked. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make the image clear or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and does not sit with scoffers to join them in scoffing” or “so he never becomes like wicked mockers”
