< Psalms 15 >
1 Lord, who schal dwelle in thi tabernacle; ether who schal reste in thin hooli hil?
A psalm of David. Lord, who can be guest in your tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
2 He that entrith with out wem; and worchith riytfulnesse.
The person whose walk is blameless, whose conduct is right, whose words are true and sincere;
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.
on whose tongue there sits no slander, who will not harm a friend,
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;
nor cruelly insult a neighbor, who regards with contempt those rejected by God; but honors those who obey the Lord, who keeps an oath, whatever the cost,
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.
whose money is lent without interest, and never takes a bribe to hurt the innocent. The person who does these things will always stand firm.
