Ang Hinihiling ng Diyos

Awit ni David.

15 O Yahweh, sino kayang makakapasok sa iyong Templo?
    Sinong karapat-dapat sumamba sa iyong burol na sagrado?

Ang taong masunurin sa iyo sa lahat ng bagay,
    at laging gumagawa ayon sa katuwiran,
mga salita'y bukal sa loob at pawang katotohanan,
    at ang kapwa'y hindi niya sisiraan.
Di siya gumagawa ng masama sa kanyang kaibigan,
    tungkol sa kapwa'y di nagkakalat ng kasinungalingan.
Ang itinakwil ng Diyos ay di niya pinapakisamahan,
    mga may takot kay Yahweh, kanyang pinaparangalan.
Sa pangakong binitiwan, siya'y laging tapat,
    anuman ang mangyari, salita'y tinutupad.
Hindi nagpapatubo sa kanyang mga pinautang,
    di nasusuhulan para ipahamak ang walang kasalanan.

Ang ganitong tao'y di matitinag kailanman.

What the Lord Demands

A psalm of David.

15 Lord, who may ·enter [dwell/abide/sojourn in] your Holy Tent [C the Tabernacle]?
Who may live on your holy mountain [C Mount Zion]?

Only those who ·are innocent [walk innocently]
    and who do ·what is right [righteousness; 1:1; Job 1:1].
Such people speak the truth from their hearts
    and do not ·tell lies about others [slander with their tongue].
They do no ·wrong [evil] to their neighbors
    and do not ·gossip [L raise a reproachful matter with their associates].
·They do not respect hateful people [L The wicked are despised in their eyes]
    but honor those who ·honor [L fear] the Lord.
They keep their promises to their neighbors,
    even when it hurts.
They do not charge interest on money they lend [Ex. 22:25–27; Lev. 25:35–36; Deut. 23:19]
    and do not take ·money [a bribe] to hurt innocent people [Ex. 23:8; Deut. 16:19].
Whoever does all these things will never be ·destroyed [L moved].

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

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

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

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.

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