Psalm 1
1 ಭಕ್ತಿಹೀನರ ಆಲೋಚನೆಯಂತೆ ನಡೆಯದೆ ಪಾಪಿಗಳ ಮಾರ್ಗದಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಲ್ಲದೆ ಕುಚೋದ್ಯಗಾರರು ಕೂತುಕೊಳ್ಳುವಲ್ಲಿ ಕೂತುಕೊಳ್ಳದೆ
2 ಕರ್ತನ ನ್ಯಾಯ ಪ್ರಮಾಣದಲ್ಲಿ ಸಂತೋಷಿಸಿ ಅದನ್ನ್ನು ರಾತ್ರಿ ಹಗಲು ಧ್ಯಾನಿಸುವ ಮನುಷ್ಯನೇ ಧನ್ಯನು.
3 ಅವನು ತನ್ನ ಕಾಲದಲ್ಲಿ ತನ್ನ ಫಲಕೊಡುವಂಥ, ಎಲೆ ಬಾಡದಂಥ, ನೀರಿನ ಹೊಳೆಗಳ ಬಳಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ನೆಡಲ್ಪಟ್ಟಂಥ ಮರದ ಹಾಗಿರುವನು; ಅವನು ಮಾಡು ವದೆಲ್ಲಾ ಸಫಲವಾಗುವದು.
4 ಭಕ್ತಿಹೀನರು ಹಾಗಲ್ಲ, ಅವರು ಗಾಳಿ ಬಡು ಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗುವ ಹೊಟ್ಟಿನ ಹಾಗೆ ಇದ್ದಾರೆ.
5 ಆದದರಿಂದ ಭಕ್ತಿಹೀನರು ನ್ಯಾಯತೀರ್ಪಿನಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಪಾಪಿಗಳು ನೀತಿವಂತರ ಸಭೆಯಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ನಿಲ್ಲರು.
6 ನೀತಿವಂತರ ಮಾರ್ಗವನ್ನು ಕರ್ತನು ಅರಿತಿದ್ದಾನೆ; ಆದರೆ ಭಕ್ತಿಹೀನರ ಮಾರ್ಗವು ನಾಶವಾಗುವದು.
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
1 And the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time, saying,
2 Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.
3 So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days’ journey.
4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.
5 So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.
6 For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
7 And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water:
8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.
9 Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.
