< Psalms 15 >
1 A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, who sojourns in Your tent? Who dwells in Your holy hill?
Zaburi ya Daudi. Yahwe, ni nani atabaki hemani mwako? Ni nani atakaye ishi kwenye mlima wako mtakatifu?
2 He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And speaking truth in his heart.
Yeyote anaye tembea bila lawama, yeye hufanya kilicho haki na huongea ukweli kutoka moyoni mwake.
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.
Yeye huwa hakashfu kwa ulimi wake, hawadhuru wengine, na hamtusi jirani yake.
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;
Mtu asiye na maana hudharauliwa machoni pake, bali yeye huwaheshimu wale wanao mhofu Yahwe. Yeye huapa kwa hasara yake mwenyewe na habadilishi ahadi yake.
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!
Yeye habadilishi nia yake aazimapo fedha. Yeye hachukui rushwa ili kumshuhudia kinyume asiye na hatia. Yeye afanyanyaye mbambo haya hatatikisika kamwe.
