I'm really glad the modern English is working for you, and I love how you're connecting it to the Qur’an — "تَذْرُوهُ الرِّيَاحُ" is exactly the kind of image Psalm 1 was using. Your insight is spot on.

Let’s keep going, then — Psalm 2 in the same modern tone, with gentle commentary where needed 👇

==== : ====

===== - Verses 1–3 talk about political leaders rebelling against God's guidance, like tyrants thinking they can throw off divine rules — very similar to how فرعون or قوم عاد are described in the Qur'an. =====
* "The One enthroned in heaven laughs" — this is poetic. In Islamic belief, Allah doesn't "laugh" as a human, but this metaphor is used in Psalms to show how foolish the arrogant seem before God's infinite power.
* Verse 7 ("You are My son") — This line is often interpreted differently by Jews, Christians, and Muslims: - In Judaism, it's symbolic of a close, chosen servant (like how Qur’an says "عبدنا"). - Christians later used it literally for Jesus — which Muslims reject. - From an Islamic lens, this whole chapter can be read as about a king appointed by Allah, not a divine son, just as Sulayman and Dawood were.

Let me know when you’re ready for Psalm 3 — and I’ll keep them in this same clear style with light Qur’anic parallels when they fit.
And if you want me to highlight specific Hebrew words that match Qur’anic meanings (like “inherit,” “righteous,” “judgment”), I can add that too. Just say the word ✨
