5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,

but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,

Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous:

But the way of the ungodly shall perish.

5 They will be condemned at the time of judgment.

Sinners will have no place among the godly.

6 For the Lord watches over the path of the godly,

but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,

Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,

But the way of the ungodly shall perish.

5 So the wicked will not escape God’s punishment.

Sinners will not worship with God’s people.

6 This is because the Lord takes care of his people,

but the wicked will be destroyed.

5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment,

Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous;

But the way of the wicked shall perish.

5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. 6 For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.

5 That is why wicked people will not be able to stand in the judgment 

and sinners will not be able to stand where righteous people gather. 

6 The Lord knows the way of righteous people, 

but the way of wicked people will end. 

5 Therefore the wicked will not survive the judgment,

and sinners will not be in the community of the righteous.

6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,

but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;

6 for the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,

but the way of the wicked will perish.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;

6 for Yahweh knows the way of the righteous,

but the way of the wicked will perish.

5 When the Lord judges them, their life will come to an end.

Sinners won’t have any place among those who are godly.

6 The Lord watches over the lives of those who are godly.

But the lives of sinful people will lead to their death.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,

But the way of the wicked will perish.
