< Psalms 1 >

1 Happy are those who don't follow the advice of the wicked. They refuse to adopt the ways of sinful people, and they don't make fun of others.
Halang rhoek kah cilsuep dongah aka cet pawt tih, hlangtholh rhoek kah longpuei ah aka pai pawh, hmuiyoi rhoek kah tolrhum ah aka ngol pawt hlang te tah a yoethen.
2 Instead they love to do what the law of the Lord says, and they think about it day and night.
Tedae BOEIPA kah olkhueng dongah a hlahmae tih khoyin khothaih olkhueng dongah aka thuep tah,
3 They're like trees growing by flowing rivers, producing fruit every season. Their leaves never wither, and they are successful in all they do.
Sokca tui taengah a phung thingkung bangla a om dongah amah tue ah a thaih thaii tih, a hnah khaw hoo pawh. A saii boeih te khaw thaihtak.
4 But it's not like that for the wicked! They are like chaff, blown away by the wind.
Halang rhoek tah te tlam pawt tih anih te cangkik bangla yilh loh lat a yawn.
5 For this reason the wicked will not survive the judgment—sinners have no place among those who live right.
Te dongah halang rhoek te laitloeknah dongah, hlangtholh rhoek te hlangdueng rhaengpuei taengah, tlai thai mahpawh.
6 For the Lord watches over those who follow the right way, but the way of the wicked leads to death.
BOEIPA loh aka dueng rhoek kah longpuei te a ngaithuen dongah halang rhoek kah longpuei tah khoep bing ni.
