< Psalms 15 >
1 A Psalm. Of David. Lord, who may have a resting-place in your tent, a living-place on your holy hill?
A Psalm of David. LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
2 He who goes on his way uprightly, doing righteousness, and saying what is true in his heart;
He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3 Whose tongue is not false, who does no evil to his friend, and does not take away the good name of his neighbour;
[He that] backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbor, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor.
4 Who gives honour to those who have the fear of the Lord, turning away from him who has not the Lord's approval. He who takes an oath against himself, and makes no change.
In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoreth them that fear the LORD. [He that] sweareth to [his own] hurt, and changeth not.
5 He who does not put out his money at interest, or for payment give false decisions against men who have done no wrong. He who does these things will never be moved.
[He that] putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these [things] shall never be moved.
