< Psalms 1 >
1 Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of evil men.
Thlak che a cuihnaak awh amak cet man, thlak thawlhkhqi a ceh lam awh amak dyi man, huhsit qaihsaikhqi ang ngawihnaak awh amak ngawi man thlang taw a zoseen hy.
2 But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in his law will he meditate day and night.
A awmhlynaak taw Bawipa a cawngpyinaak awi awh awm nawh, ce cawngpyinaak awi ce than dai poek poepa hy.
3 And he shall be as a tree planted by the brooks of waters, which shall yield its fruit in its season, and its leaf shall not fall off; and whatsoever he shall do shall be prospered.
Anih taw tui keng awhkaw thing ling, qah tym awh ak qah, a hah amak reu man ing lo qu nawh, a ik-oeih sainaak a hoei awh laang poepa hy.
4 Not so the ungodly; —not so: but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.
Thlak chekhqi taw cemyihna am awm kawm uh! A mingmih taw canghi zilh ing a zawn amyihna ni ami awm.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgment, nor sinners in the counsel of the just.
Cedawngawh thlak chekhqi taw awidengnaak awh am dyi thai kawm u saw, thlak thawlhkhqi awm thlakdyngkhqi ang cunnaak awh am dyi thai ti kawm uh.
6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
Bawipa ing thlakdyngkhqi a lam ce sim hy, cehlai thlak chekhqi a lam taw plawci kaw.
