What God Requires
1 Lord, who may enter your Temple?
Who may worship on Zion, your sacred hill?
2 Those who obey God in everything
and always do what is right,
whose words are true and sincere,
3 and who do not slander others.
They do no wrong to their friends
nor spread rumors about their neighbors.
4 They despise those whom God rejects,
but honor those who obey the Lord.
They always do what they promise,
no matter how much it may cost.
5 They make loans without charging interest
and cannot be bribed to testify against the innocent.
Whoever does these things will always be secure.
Imbi Ndjambi ombi ma undjire komundu okutjita
Epsalme ra David.
1 Muhona, owaṋi ngu ma yenene

Owaṋi ngu ma yenene okurikotamena kOsion,

2 Eye ngwi ngu nonḓuviro

nu ngu hungira ouatjiri nomutima we auhe,
3 nu ngu ha yamba ovakwao;
eye ngwi ngu ha tjiti ouvi kovakwao,
nu ngu ha taka omambo

4 Eye ngwi ngwa nyengura

nungwari ngu yozika imba

eye aruhe u yenenisa omakwizikiro we,
nandarire kutja owo omazeu.
5 Eye ngwi ngu ha yazemisa ovimariva
vye kutja a munine po ovitjoziwa,
nu ngu ha kambura oviyandjewa
vyombopero kutja a
kumininine po omuhinandjo.
Ngamwa auhe ngu tjita oviṋa mbi
kamaa yaraara ko nga aruhe.
