Psalms 15

1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah, who doth sojourn in Thy tent? Who doth dwell in Thy holy hill?

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

2 He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And speaking truth in his heart.

Sá sem er hógvær og lifir réttlátu lífi.

3 He hath not slandered by his tongue, He hath not done to his friend evil; And reproach he hath not lifted up Against his neighbour.

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

4 Despised in his eyes [is] a rejected one, And those fearing Jehovah he doth honour. He hath sworn to suffer evil, and changeth not;

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 His silver he hath not given in usury, And a bribe against the innocent Hath not taken; Whoso is doing these is not moved to the age!
