Psalms 15

1 A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, who sojourns in Your tent? Who dwells in Your holy hill?

En Salme af David. HERRE, hvo kan gæste dit Telt, hvo kan bo paa dit hellige Bjerg?

2 He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And speaking truth in his heart.

Den, som vandrer fuldkomment og øver Ret, taler Sandhed af sit Hjerte,

3 He has not slandered by his tongue, He has not done evil to his friend; And he has not lifted up reproach Against his neighbor.

ikke bagtaler med sin Tunge, ikke volder sin Næste ondt og ej bringer Skam over Ven,

4 A rejected one [is] despised in his eyes, And he honors those fearing YHWH. He has sworn to endure evil, and does not change;

som agter den forkastede ringe, men ærer dem, der frygter HERREN, ej bryder Ed, han svor til egen Skade,

5 He has not given his silver in usury, And has not taken a bribe against the innocent; Whoever is doing these is not moved for all time!

ej laaner Penge ud mod Aager og ej tager Gave mod skyldfri. Hvo saaledes gør, skal aldrig rokkes.
