< Psalms 15 >
1 A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in thy tabernacle? and who shall dwell in thy holy mountain?
Adonai, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill?
2 He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.
He who walks blamelessly does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart;
3 Who has not spoken craftily with is tongue, neither has done evil to his neighbour, nor taken up a reproach against them that dwelt nearest to him.
He who does not slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man;
4 In his sight an evil-worker is set at nought, but he honours them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbour, and disappoints [him] not.
In whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear Adonai; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and does not change;
5 He has not lent his money on usury, and has not received bribes against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
he who does not lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.
