Psalms 15

1 A Psalm by David. LORD, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill?

Nkosi, ngubani ozahlala ethenteni lakho? Ngubani ozakwakha entabeni yakho engcwele?

2 He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart;

Ngulowo ohamba ngobuqotho, lowenza okulungileyo, lokhuluma iqiniso enhliziyweni yakhe,

3 he who does not slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man;

ongahlebiyo ngolimi lwakhe, ongenzi okubi kumngane wakhe, longaphakamiseli umakhelwane wakhe ihlazo;

4 in whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear the LORD; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and does not change;

olahliweyo uyenyanyeka emehlweni akhe, kodwa uyabahlonipha abayesabayo iNkosi; ofunga ngokuzilimaza, kodwa kaphenduki,

5 he who does not lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.

onganiki imali yakhe ukuthi azuze inzuzo, longemukeli umvuzo wokuthengwa ngongelacala. Owenza lezizinto kayikunyikinywa kuze kube nininini.
