Psalms 15

1 A psalm of David. Yahweh, who may stay in your tabernacle? Who may live on your holy hill?

(En salme af David.) HERRE, hvo kan gæste dit Telt, hvo kan bo på dit hellige Bjerg?

2 Whoever walks blamelessly, does what is right and speaks truth from his heart.

Den, som vandrer fuldkomment og øver Ret, taler Sandhed af sit Hjerte;

3 He does not slander with his tongue, he does not harm others, and he does not insult his neighbor.

ikke bagtaler med sin Tunge, ikke volder sin Næste ondt og ej bringer Skam over Ven,

4 The worthless person is despised in his eyes, but he honors those who fear Yahweh. He swears to his own disadvantage and does not take back his promises.

som agter den forkastede ringe, men ærer dem, der frygter HERREN, ej bryder Ed, han svor til egen Skade,

5 He does not charge interest when he lends money. He does not take bribes to testify against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken.

ej låner Penge ud mod Åger og ej tager Gave mod skyldfri. Hvo således gør, skal aldrig rokkes.
