< Psalms 15 >
1 Lord, who schal dwelle in thi tabernacle; ether who schal reste in thin hooli hil?
[A Psalm by David.] YHWH, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?
2 He that entrith with out wem; and worchith riytfulnesse.
He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart.
3 Which spekith treuthe in his herte; which dide not gile in his tunge. Nethir dide yuel to his neiybore; and took not schenschip ayens hise neiyboris.
He doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.
4 A wickid man is brouyt to nouyt in his siyt; but he glorifieth hem that dreden the Lord. Which swerith to his neiybore, and disseyueth not;
In his eyes a vile man is despised, but he honors those who fear YHWH. He keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change it.
5 which yaf not his money to vsure; and took not yiftis on the innocent. He, that doith these thingis, schal not be moued with outen ende.
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.
