Salme 15

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

Lord, who shall abide in your tabernacle? who shall dwell in your holy hill?

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

He that walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.

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

He that backbites not with his tongue, nor does evil to his neighbor, nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor.

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

In whose eyes a vile person is scorned; but he honors them that fear the LORD. He that swears to his own hurt, and changes not.

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

He that puts not out his money to usury, nor takes reward against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
