(A psalm by David.)
Who May Worship the Lord?
1 Who may stay in God's temple
or live on the holy mountain
of the Lord?
2 Only those who obey God
and do as they should.
They speak the truth
3 and don't spread gossip;
they treat others fairly
and don't say cruel things.
4 They hate worthless people,
but show respect for all
who worship the Lord.
And they keep their promises,
no matter what the cost.
5 They lend their money
without charging interest,
and they don't take bribes
to hurt the innocent.
Those who do these things
will always stand firm.
Olyelye ta itavelelwa okufika kOmwene?
Epsalme laDavid.
1 Omwene, olyelye ta itavelelwa
okukala monduda yoye?
Olyelye ta itavelelwa
okukala komhunda yoye iyapuki?
2 Oye tuu ou ha yukilile nota longo ouyuki,
ndele ta popi oshili momutima waye;
3 noita popyaana nelaka laye
noita ningile omukwao owii,
nomushiinda waye ite mu fifa ohoni.
4 Ye nota dini yo oonakudinwa,
nota fimaneke ava hava tila Kalunga;
nande a anene oshiponga shaye,
eano laye ite li lundulula,
5 noimaliwa yaye ite i yandjele
a shoshelwe ko moku i alulilwa,
ye ita tambula ombubo nokati okeenyala
okupa oushima ou ina ninga sha.
Ou ta yukilile nawa ngaha,
ye ita pundauka fiyo alushe.
