< Psalms 15 >
1 A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tabernacle? and who shall dwell in your holy mountain?
[A Psalm by David.] LORD, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?
2 He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.
He who walks blamelessly and 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 lived nearest to him.
He doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.
4 In his sight an evil-worker is set at nothing, but he honours them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbour, and disappoints [him] not.
In his eyes a vile man is despised, but he honors those who fear the LORD. He keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change it.
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 doesn't lend out his money for interest, nor take a bribe against the innocent. The one who does these things will never be upended.
