< Psalms 1 >
1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or set foot on the path of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers.
MEID pai ol o, me jota alialu ni padak en me doo jan Kot akan o me jo duki on me dipan akan, o me jo mondi ren me malaun akan,
2 But his delight is in the Law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night.
A me kin peren kida kapun en leowa o madamadaua duen a kapun ni ran o ni pon!
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, yielding its fruit in season, whose leaf does not wither, and who prospers in all he does.
A rajon tuka pot, me padedier ni kailan pilap akan me kin kapareda wa ni a anjau, o ta kan jota kin monala, a karoj a wiawia pwaida.
4 Not so the wicked! For they are like chaff driven off by the wind.
Me doo jan Kot akan jota kin dueta, a re rajon dip me an kin iririp jili.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
I me doo jan Kot akan jota pan pwai kida nan kadeik, o me dipan akan nan momod en me pun kan.
6 For the LORD guards the path of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
Pwe leowa kotin mani al en me pun kan; a al en ir, me doo jan Kot akan, pan joredi.
