< Psalms 1 >

1 BOOK FIRST: Happy is the man who walketh not in the council of the wicked, and standeth not in the way of sinners, and sitteth not in the seat of scorners;
Halang rhoek kah caemtuh 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 But whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who doth meditate in his law by day and night.
Tedae BOEIPA kah olkhueng dongah a hlahmae tih khoyin khothaih olkhueng dongah aka thuep tah,
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by rivulets of water, that yieldeth its fruit in its season, and the leaf of which doth not wither; and all that he may do shall prosper.
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 Not so the wicked; but they are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Halang rhoek tah te tlam pawt tih anih te cangkik bangla yilh loh lat a yawn.
5 Therefore shall the wicked not be able to stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
Te dongah halang rhoek te laitloeknah dongah, hlangtholh rhoek te hlangdueng rhaengpuei taengah, tlai thai mahpawh.
6 For the Lord regardeth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked leadeth to perdition.
BOEIPA loh aka dueng rhoek kah longpuei te a ngaithuen dongah halang rhoek kah longpuei tah khoep bing ni.
