Psalms 15

1 A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tabernacle? and who shall dwell in your holy mountain?

En Psalme af David. Herre, hvo skal være til Herberge i dit Paulun? hvo skal bo paa dit hellige Bjerg?

2 He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.

Den, som vandrer i Oprigtighed og gør Retfærdighed og taler Sandhed i sit Hjerte;

3 Who has not spoken craftily with is tongue, neither has done evil to his neighbour, nor taken up a reproach against them that lived nearest to him.

som ikke bagtaler med sin Tunge, ikke gør sin Næste ondt og ikke driver Spot med sin nærmeste;

4 In his sight an evil-worker is set at nothing, but he honours them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbour, and disappoints [him] not.

i hvis Øjne den ugudelige er foragtet, men som ærer dem, som frygte Herren; den, som har svoret sig til Skade og ikke vil forandre det;

5 He has not lent his money on usury, and has not received bribes against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.

den, som ikke sætter sine Penge ud imod Aager og ikke tager Gave imod en uskyldig; hvo disse Ting gør, skal ikke rokkes evindelig.
