Psalms 1

1 “BOOK I” Happy the man who walketh not in the counsel of the unrighteous, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers;

Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũtatwaranaga na ũtaaro wa andũ arĩa aaganu, kana akarũgama njĩra-inĩ ya andũ arĩa mehagia, o na kana agaikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa arĩa manyũrũranagia.

2 But whose delight is in the law of the LORD, And who meditateth on his precepts day and night.

No rĩrĩ, nĩ watho wa Jehova akenagĩra, na agecũũranagia ũhoro wa watho wake kũrĩ mũthenya kana ũtukũ.

3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaves also do not wither: All that he doeth shall prosper.

Mũndũ ũcio ahaana ta mũtĩ mũhaande tũmĩtaro-inĩ twa maaĩ, naguo ũciaraga maciaro maguo hĩndĩ ya mo yakinya, namo mathangũ maguo matihoohaga. Na rĩrĩ, ũndũ o wothe ekaga nĩũgaacagĩra.

4 Not so the unrighteous; They are like chaff, which the wind driveth away.

No andũ arĩa aaganu matihaana ũguo! Mahaana ta mũũngũ ũrĩa ũmbũragwo nĩ rũhuho.

5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in judgment, Nor sinners in the assembly of the just.

Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ arĩa aaganu matigetiiria ciira-inĩ, kana andũ arĩa ehia metiirie kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa andũ arĩa athingu.

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked leadeth to ruin.

Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩamenyagĩrĩra njĩra ya andũ arĩa athingu, no andũ arĩa aaganu marĩ njĩra-inĩ ya kũũra.
