Psalms 15

1 A Psalm of David. O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy mountain?

En Salme af David. HERRE, hvo kan gæste dit Telt, hvo kan bo paa dit hellige Bjerg?

2 He who walks with integrity and practices righteousness, who speaks the truth from his heart,

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

3 who has no slander on his tongue, who does no harm to his neighbor, who casts no scorn on his friend,

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

4 who despises the vile but honors those who fear the LORD, who does not revise a costly oath,

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

5 who lends his money without interest and refuses a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken.

ej laaner Penge ud mod Aager og ej tager Gave mod skyldfri. Hvo saaledes gør, skal aldrig rokkes.
