La Bu 1

1 Migiloute thuhil jom louva, michonse ho lamlhah dunga jong dingle lou; chule Elohim Pathen ginglou ho kikhop na dunga jong tou khompi lou mi chu anun nom ahi.

BOOK I HAPPY IS the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked, nor stood in the way of sinners, nor sat in the seat of the scornful.

2 Hitobang mihochun Yahweh Pakai Dan thu a bou lunglhai na aneiyun, Yahweh Pakai Dan thu chu sun le jan in angaito jing jeng ui.

But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law doth he meditate day and night.

3 Hitobang mi hochu twi lonna luipanga kiphut, aphat cha hung gaji adojong gopjilou thingphung tobang ahi; hitobang miho jong chu atohna lam lam'uva alolhing jiuve.

And he shall be like a tree planted by streams of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in its season, and whose leaf doth not wither; and in whatsoever he doeth he shall prosper.

4 Yahweh Pakai ginglouho vang chutobang ahipoi: huilhoh mangle changvai tobangbep ahiuve.

Not so the wicked; but they are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Hijeh a chu Yahweh Pakai gingloute chu thutan nikho tengleh themmo changdiu, michonse hon jong mikitah ho lah'a mun aneiloudiu ahi.

Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 Ajeh chu Yahweh Pakai in michonpha ho lamlhah ahetpeh jing in, Yahweh Pakai ginglou ho lampi vang manthahna'a lut diu ahi.

For the LORD regardeth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked shall perish.
