The Bible

1

Bannit ta'n dooinney nagh vel er n'immeeaght ayns coyrle ny mee-chrauee, ny er hassoo ayns raad peccee: as nagh vel er hoie ayns stoyl ny craidoilee;

Blessed is the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stood in the way of sinners: and hath not sat in the seat of the scornful.

2

Agh ta e haitnys ayns leigh yn Chiarn: as ayns y leigh-echeysyn nee eh eh-hene y chliaghtey laa as oie.

But his delight is in the law of the Lord: and in his law will he exercise himself day and night.

3

As bee eh myr billey soit rish oirr yn ushtey: ver magh e vess ayns imbagh cooie.

And he shall be like a tree planted by the water-side: that will bring forth his fruit in due season.

4

E ghuillag neesht cha jean fioghey: as jeeagh, cre-erbee t'eh dy yannoo, te cheet lesh.

His leaf also shall not wither: and look, whatsoever he doeth, it shall prosper.

5

Er son ny mee chrauee, cha vel eh myr shen mâroosyn: agh t'ad goll-rish y choau ta'n gheay dy heebey veih eddin y thallooin.

As for the ungodly, it is not so with them: but they are like the chaff, which the wind scattereth away from the face of the earth.

6

Shen-y-fa cha vod ny mee-chrauee shassoo ayns y vriwnys: chamoo ny peccee ayns chaglym y sleih ynrick.

Therefore the ungodly shall not be able to stand in the judgement: neither the sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

7

Son shione da'n Chiarn raad y sleih cairal: as nee raad ny mee-chrauee cherraghtyn.

But the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: and the way of the ungodly shall perish.
