Psalm 1

1 Insewowo mwet se su Tia fufahsryesr in pwapa lun mwet koluk, Ku ukwe inkanek lun mwet sutuu, Ku muta inmasrlon mwet su aksruksrukye God.

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.

2 A el engankin ma sap lun LEUM GOD, Ac el nunku kac ke len ac fong.

But his pleasure is in the law of the Lord; and in his law will he meditate day and night.

3 El ac fah oana soko sak yoki sisken infacl, Su isus fahko la in pacl la, Ac sra kac tiana paola, Ac ma nukewa el oru fah kapkapak.

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 whatever he shall do shall be prospered.

4 Mwet koluk elos tia ouinge, A elos oana kulun wheat ma eng uh okla.

Not so the ungodly; —not so: but rather as the chaff which the wind scatters away from the face of the earth.

5 Ke ma inge mwet koluk elos ac fah tia tu in nununku Ku mwet sutuu in walil lun mwet suwoswos.

Therefore the ungodly shall not rise in judgment, nor sinners in the counsel of the just.

6 Tuh LEUM GOD El etu inkanek lun mwet suwoswos, A inkanek lun mwet koluk fah wanginla.

For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
