Psalms 15

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

He himene na Rawiri. E Ihowa, ko wai e noho ki tou tapenakara? Ko wai e noho ki tou maunga tapu?

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

Ko ia he tapatahi nei te haere, he tika te mahi, he korero pono ano i roto i tona ngakau.

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

Kahore nei e ngautuara tona arero, kahore e kino te mahi ki tona hoa, kahore ana ingoa kino mo tona hoa.

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

E whakahengia ana te tangata kino e ona kanohi, e whakahonoretia ana ia e ia te hunga e wehi ana ki a Ihowa. Ahakoa mate i tana oati, kahore e whakapaheketia e ia.

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

Kahore e tuku i tana moni hei moni whakatupu; kahore hoki e tango i te moni hei utu mate mo te tangata harakore. Ki te penei te mahi a tetahi, e kore ia e whakakorikoria ake ake.
