Psalms 15

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

Drottinn, hver fær að leita skjóls og hælis í tjaldi þínu á fjallinu þínu helga?

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

Sá sem er hógvær og lifir réttlátu lífi.

3 he who doesn’t slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man;

Sá sem ekki baktalar náungann, leggur sig ekki eftir slúðri né gerir meðbróður sínum mein.

4 in whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honours those who fear the LORD; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn’t change;

Sá sem andmælir illverkum og fyrirlítur þau. Sá sem heiðrar þá er fylgja Drottni í trúfesti og stendur við orð sín hvað sem það kostar.

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.
