Psalms 15

1 Yahweh, who are allowed to enter your Sacred Tent? Who are allowed to live on your sacred mountain?

Zaburi ya Daudi. Bwana, ni nani awezaye kukaa katika Hekalu lako? Nani awezaye kuishi katika mlima wako mtakatifu?

2 Only those who always do what is right and do not sin may do that. They always say what is true

Ni yule aendaye pasipo mawaa, atendaye yaliyo haki, asemaye kweli toka moyoni mwake,

3 and they do not slander others. They do not do to others things that are wrong, and they do not say bad things about others.

na hana masingizio ulimini mwake, asiyemtenda jirani yake vibaya, na asiyemsingizia mwenzake,

4 [Godly people] hate those whom God has rejected, but they respect those who revere Yahweh. They do what they have promised to do even if it causes them trouble to do that.

ambaye humdharau mtu mbaya, lakini huwaheshimu wale wamwogopao Bwana, yule atunzaye kiapo chake hata kama anaumia.

5 They lend money to others without charging interest, and they never accept bribes in order to lie about people who have not done what is wrong. Those who do those things will never stop trusting God [even if disastrous things happen to them].

Yeye akopeshaye fedha yake bila riba, na hapokei rushwa dhidi ya mtu asiye na hatia. Mtu afanyaye haya kamwe hatatikisika.
