Psalms 15

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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