Psalms 1

1 Happy is the man who does not go in the company of sinners, or take his place in the way of evil-doers, or in the seat of those who do not give honour to the Lord.

POMAIKAI ke kanaka i hele ole ma ke aoia o ka poe aia. I ku ole hoi ma ka aoao o ka poe hewa, I noho ole hoi ma ka noho o ka poe haakei.

2 But whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and whose mind is on his law day and night.

Aka, ma ke kanawai o Iehova kona olioli; A ma kona kanawai oia i manao ai i ke ao a me ka po.

3 He will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, which gives its fruit at the right time, whose leaves will ever be green; and he will do well in all his undertakings.

E like no ia me ka laau i kanuia ma na kahawai, I hoohua mai i kona hua i kona manawa; A o kona lau hoi aole e mae; A o kona mea e hana'i e pono ana no ia.

4 The evil-doers are not so; but are like the dust from the grain, which the wind takes away.

Aole hoi e like me neia ka poe aia; Aka, ua like ia me ka opala i puehu i ka makani.

5 For this cause there will be no mercy for sinners when they are judged, and the evil-doers will have no place among the upright,

Nolaila, aole e ku ana ka poe aia ma ka hookolokolo ana, Aole hoi ka poe hewa iloko o ka ka poe pono anaina.

6 Because the Lord sees the way of the upright, but the end of the sinner is destruction.

No ka mea, ua ike mai la o Iehova i ka aoao o ka poe maikai; Aka hoi, o ka aoao o ka poe hewa, e make ana no ia.
