< Psalms 15 >
1 A Psalm. Of David. Lord, who may have a resting-place in your tent, a living-place on your holy hill?
Se yon sòm David. Seyè, ki moun ki ka rete lakay ou a? Ki moun ki ka viv sou mòn ki apa pou ou a?
2 He who goes on his way uprightly, doing righteousness, and saying what is true in his heart;
Se moun ki fè volonte Bondye nan tout bagay, ki toujou fè sa ki byen. Se moun ki pale verite a jan l' ye nan kè li,
3 Whose tongue is not false, who does no evil to his friend, and does not take away the good name of his neighbour;
ki pa nan bay moun kout lang. Se moun ki p'ap fè zanmi l' yo anyen ki mal, ki p'ap mache fè tripotaj sou vwazinaj.
4 Who gives honour to those who have the fear of the Lord, turning away from him who has not the Lord's approval. He who takes an oath against himself, and makes no change.
Li meprize tout moun Bondye vire do bay, men, li respekte tout moun ki gen krentif pou Seyè a. Li toujou kenbe pawòl li, menm si sa koute l' chè.
5 He who does not put out his money at interest, or for payment give false decisions against men who have done no wrong. He who does these things will never be moved.
Li prete moun san mande enterè. Li p'ap pran lajan anba pou l' bay manti sou moun ki inonsan. Moun ki fè bagay sa yo p'ap janm tonbe!
