Psalmorum 15

1 Psalmus David. Domine quis habitabit in tabernaculo tuo? aut quis requiescet in monte sancto tuo?

[A Psalm by David.] Jehovah, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?

2 Qui ingreditur sine macula, et operatur iustitiam:

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

3 Qui loquitur veritatem in corde suo, qui non egit dolum in lingua sua: Nec fecit proximo suo malum, et opprobrium non accepit adversus proximos suos.

He doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.

4 Ad nihilum deductus est in conspectu eius malignus: timentes autem Dominum glorificat: Qui iurat proximo suo, et non decipit,

In his eyes a vile man is despised, but he honors those who fear Jehovah. He keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change it.

5 qui pecuniam suam non dedit ad usuram, et munera super innocentem non accepit: Qui facit hæc, non movebitur in æternum.

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.
