Nnwom 15

1 Dawid dwom. Awurade, hwan na ɔbɛsoeɛ wo kronkronbea hɔ? Hwan na ɔbɛtena wo bepɔ kronkron no so?

A psalm of David. Who may enter your sanctuary, Lord? Who may come into your presence on your holy mountain?

2 Deɛ ne ho nni asɛm na ɔyɛ deɛ ɛtene, deɛ ɔka nokorɛ a ɛfiri nʼakomam

Those who live without fault and do what is right, those who sincerely tell the truth.

3 na ɔmfa ne tɛkrɛma nsɛe nnipa deɛ ɔnnyɛ ne yɔnko bɔne na ɔmmu ne yɔnko onipa abomfiaa,

They do not slander, do not treat their neighbors badly, do not gossip about people they know.

4 deɛ ɔbu afideyɛni animtiaa na ɔde anidie ma wɔn a wɔsuro Awurade, deɛ ɔdi ne ntam so ɛberɛ a ɛtia no mpo,

They reject people the Lord has rejected, but honor those who follow the Lord. They keep their promises even when it's hard to do. They don't change their minds.

5 deɛ ɔde ne sika bɔ bosea a ɔnnye nsiho na ɔnnye adanmudeɛ ntia deɛ ɔdi bem. Deɛ ɔyɛ yeinom no renhinhim da.

They lend money without charging interest. They don't take bribes to testify against the innocent. Those who act like this will never ever fall.
