Amahubo 15

1 Ihubo likaDavida. Thixo, ngubani ongahlala endlini yakho engcwele na? Ngubani ongahlala entabeni yakho engcwele na?

A Psalm by David. Yahweh, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill?

2 Ngulowo okuhamba kwakhe kungelansolo njalo owenza okulungileyo, okhuluma iqiniso liphuma enhliziyweni yakhe,

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

3 ongachothoziyo ngolimi lwakhe, ongoneli umakhelwane wakhe futhi ongagconi umzalwane wakhe,

he who doesn’t slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man;

4 oweyisa umuntu oxhwalileyo kodwa ohlonipha labo abesaba uThixo, ogcina isifungo sakhe loba kubuhlungu ukwenzenjalo,

in whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear Yahweh; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn’t change;

5 owebolekisa imali yakhe engadingi inzuzo njalo owalayo ukuthengwa ukuze kwetheswe umlandu kongelacala. Lowo owenza lezizinto akayikuzanyazanyiswa lanini.

he who doesn’t lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.
