Psalms 15

1 [A Psalm by David.] Jehovah, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?

Thaburi ya Daudi Jehova, nũũ ũngĩtũũra hema-inĩ yaku? Nũũ ũngĩtũũra kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩaku kĩrĩa kĩamũre?

2 He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart.

Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa mĩthiĩre yake ĩtarĩ ũcuuke, na ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ ma ũthingu, na kwaria aragia ũhoro wa ma kuuma ngoro-inĩ yake,

3 He doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.

na ndarĩ njambanio rũrĩmĩ-inĩ rwake, na ndeekaga mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake ũũru, o na kana akamenereria mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ;

4 In his eyes a vile man is despised, but he honors those who fear Jehovah. He keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change it.

mũndũ ũcio nĩathũire mũndũ ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ mooru, no nĩatĩĩte arĩa etigĩri Jehova, na ndagaga kũhingia mwĩhĩtwa wake, o na ũngĩkorwo ũrĩ wa kũmũtuuria,

5 He doesn't lend out his money for interest, nor take a bribe against the innocent. The one who does these things will never be upended.

ndakombanagĩra mbeeca ciake nĩguo one uumithio, na ndangĩoya ihaki nĩguo ahatĩrĩrie mũndũ ũteehĩtie. Mũndũ ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ ta macio ndarĩ hĩndĩ akeenyenyeka.
