भजन संहिता 15

1 हे परमेश्वर तेरे तम्बू में कौन रहेगा? तेरे पवित्र पर्वत पर कौन बसने पाएगा?

2 वह जो खराई से चलता और धर्म के काम करता है, और हृदय से सच बोलता है;

3 जो अपनी जीभ से निन्दा नहीं करता, और न अपने मित्र की बुराई करता, और न अपने पड़ोसी की निन्दा सुनता है;

4 वह जिसकी दृष्टि में निकम्मा मनुष्य तुच्छ है, और जो यहोवा के डरवैयों का आदर करता है, जो शपथ खाकर बदलता नहीं चाहे हानि उठानी पड़े;

5 जो अपना रूपया ब्याज पर नहीं देता, और निर्दोष की हानि करने के लिये घूस नहीं लेता है। जो कोई ऐसी चाल चलता है वह कभी न डगमगाएगा॥

1 A Psalm of David.

2 Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

3 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

4 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

5 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

6 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

0 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.

6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.

8 The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.

9 The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.

10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.

12 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.

13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.

14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
