< Psalms 15 >
1 A Psalm by David. Yahweh, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill?
Zaburi ya Daudi. Bwana, ni nani awezaye kukaa katika Hekalu lako? Nani awezaye kuishi katika mlima wako mtakatifu?
2 He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart;
Ni yule aendaye pasipo mawaa, atendaye yaliyo haki, asemaye kweli toka moyoni mwake,
3 he who doesn’t slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man;
na hana masingizio ulimini mwake, asiyemtenda jirani yake vibaya, na asiyemsingizia mwenzake,
4 in whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear Yahweh; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn’t change;
ambaye humdharau mtu mbaya, lakini huwaheshimu wale wamwogopao Bwana, yule atunzaye kiapo chake hata kama anaumia.
5 he who doesn’t lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.
Yeye akopeshaye fedha yake bila riba, na hapokei rushwa dhidi ya mtu asiye na hatia. Mtu afanyaye haya kamwe hatatikisika.
