Salmos 15

1 Un salmo de David. Yahvé, ¿quién habitará en tu santuario? ¿Quién vivirá en tu santa colina?

Yahweh, who are allowed to enter your Sacred Tent? Who are allowed to live on your sacred mountain?

2 El que camina intachablemente y hace lo que es correcto, y dice la verdad en su corazón;

Only those who always do what is right and do not sin may do that. They always say what is true

3 el que no calumnia con su lengua, ni hace el mal a su amigo, ni lanza calumnias contra sus semejantes;

and they do not slander others. They do not do to others things that are wrong, and they do not say bad things about others.

4 a cuyos ojos se desprecia al hombre vil, sino que honra a los que temen a Yahvé; el que mantiene un juramento aunque le duela, y no cambia;

[Godly people] hate those whom God has rejected, but they respect those who revere Yahweh. They do what they have promised to do even if it causes them trouble to do that.

5 el que no presta su dinero por usura, ni aceptar un soborno contra el inocente. El que hace estas cosas nunca será sacudido.

They lend money to others without charging interest, and they never accept bribes in order to lie about people who have not done what is wrong. Those who do those things will never stop trusting God [even if disastrous things happen to them].
