< Salme 15 >
1 En Salme af David. HERRE, hvo kan gæste dit Telt, hvo kan bo paa dit hellige Bjerg?
[A Psalm by David.] LORD, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?
2 Den, som vandrer fuldkomment og øver Ret, taler Sandhed af sit Hjerte,
He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart.
3 ikke bagtaler med sin Tunge, ikke volder sin Næste ondt og ej bringer Skam over Ven,
He doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.
4 som agter den forkastede ringe, men ærer dem, der frygter HERREN, ej bryder Ed, han svor til egen Skade,
In his eyes a vile man is despised, but he honors those who fear the LORD. He keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change it.
5 ej laaner Penge ud mod Aager og ej tager Gave mod skyldfri. Hvo saaledes gør, skal aldrig rokkes.
He doesn't lend out his money for interest, nor take a bribe against the innocent. The one who does these things will never be upended.
