Psalm 1/Notes/Lexical.V. 5.851285
For the verb, will not stand firm (לֹא־יָקֻ֣מוּ), "modern translations give us usually three main meanings: a) to stand up or to rise, b) to stand (to keep standing), c) to prevail (in a judgment). As for modern commentaries, they tend to develop one of the three former interpretations."[1] Others, especially ancient commentators, have seen in this verb a reference to the resurrection from the dead (e.g. LXX: αναστησονται; Jerome: resurgent). Yet "in spite of the antiquity of this and similar interpretations, the more likely view is that 'to stand' simply means 'to last, endure' in God's judgment, as in Nah 1:6: 'Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the heat of his anger?'"[2] Just as chaff does not survive the winnowing process (v. 4), so the wicked will not survive ("stand firm in") the judgment (v. 5).[3]
