Psalms 15

1 Yhwh, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

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

2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

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

3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

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

4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear Yhwh. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

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 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

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.
