La Bu 1

1 Migiloute thuhil jom louva, michonse ho lamlhah dunga jong dingle lou; chule Pathen ginglou ho kikhop na dunga jong toukhompilou mi chu anunnom ahi.

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;

2 Hitobang mihochun Pakai Danthua bou lunglhaina anei’un, Pakai Dan thu chu sun le jan in angaito jing jeng ui.

but his delight is in Adonai’s Torah ·Teaching·. On his torot ·teachings· he meditates day and night.

3 Hitobang mi hochu twi lonna luipanga kiphut, aphat cha hung gaji adojong gopjilou thingphung tobang ahi; hitobang miho jong chu atohna lam lam’uva alolhing jiuve.

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 Pakai ginglouho vang chutobang ahipoi: huilhoh mangle changvai tobangbep ahiuve.

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

5 Hijeh a chu Pakai gingloute chu thutan nikho tengleh themmo changdiu, michonse hon jong midih ho lah’a mun aneiloudiu ahi.

Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the upright.

6 Ajeh chu Pakai in michonpha ho lamlhah ahetpeh jing in, Pakai ginglou ho lampi vang manthahna’a lut diu ahi.

For Adonai knows the way of the upright, but the way of the wicked shall perish.
