< Psalmorum 15 >
1 psalmus David Domine quis habitabit in tabernaculo tuo aut quis requiescet in monte sancto tuo
A psalm of David. Lord, who can be guest in your tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
2 qui ingreditur sine macula et operatur iustitiam
The person whose walk is blameless, whose conduct is right, whose words are true and sincere;
3 qui loquitur veritatem in corde suo qui non egit dolum in lingua sua nec fecit proximo suo malum et obprobrium non accepit adversus proximos suos
on whose tongue there sits no slander, who will not harm a friend,
4 ad nihilum deductus est in conspectu eius malignus timentes autem Dominum glorificat qui iurat proximo suo et non decipit
nor cruelly insult a neighbour, who regards with contempt those rejected by God; but honours those who obey the Lord, who keeps an oath, whatever the cost,
5 qui pecuniam suam non dedit ad usuram et munera super innocentes non accepit qui facit haec non movebitur in aeternum
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.
