Masalimo 15

1 Salimo la Davide. Yehova, ndani angathe kukhala mʼmalo anu opatulika? Kodi ndani angathe kukhala mʼphiri lanu loyera?

A Psalm. Of David. Lord, who may have a resting-place in your tent, a living-place on your holy hill?

2 Munthu wa makhalidwe abwino, amene amachita zolungama, woyankhula choonadi chochokera mu mtima mwake,

He who goes on his way uprightly, doing righteousness, and saying what is true in his heart;

3 ndipo mʼkamwa mwake simutuluka mawu osinjirira, amene sachitira choyipa mnansi wake kapena kufalitsa mbiri yoyipa ya munthu mnzake,

Whose tongue is not false, who does no evil to his friend, and does not take away the good name of his neighbour;

4 amene sapereka ulemu kwa munthu woyipa. Koma amalemekeza amene amaopa Yehova, amene amakwaniritsa zomwe walonjeza ngakhale pamene zikumupweteka,

Who gives honour to those who have the fear of the Lord, turning away from him who has not the Lord's approval. He who takes an oath against himself, and makes no change.

5 amene amakongoletsa ndalama zake popanda chiwongoladzanja ndipo salandira chiphuphu pofuna kutsutsa anthu osalakwa. Iye amene amachita zinthu zimenezi sadzagwedezeka konse.

He who does not put out his money at interest, or for payment give false decisions against men who have done no wrong. He who does these things will never be moved.
