Psalms 15

1 Lord, who shall abide in your tabernacle? who shall dwell in your holy hill?

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

2 He that walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.

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

3 He that backbites not with his tongue, nor does evil to his neighbor, nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor.

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

4 In whose eyes a vile person is scorned; but he honors them that fear the LORD. He that swears to his own hurt, and changes not.

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

5 He that puts not out his money to usury, nor takes reward against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.

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