(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.

Jumaa le si sabati noo i la konko senuŋo* kaŋ?
2 Wo mu moo le ti meŋ baluuñaa maŋ sootaaroo soto,

4 A ka junubentuŋolu koŋ ne,

5 A buka a la kodoo dontolaa ka lankaŋo ñini,

Moo meŋ ka kuwolu taamandi teŋ,
