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 doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;

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

but his delight is in the LORD’s law. On his law he meditates 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.

He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.

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

The wicked are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.

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

Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgement, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

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 wicked shall perish.
