< Psalms 15 >

1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah, who shall sojourn in thy tent? who shall dwell in the hill of thy holiness?
A psalm of David. Lord, who can be guest in your tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth from his heart.
The person whose walk is blameless, whose conduct is right, whose words are true and sincere;
3 [He that] slandereth not with his tongue, doeth not evil to his companion, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour;
on whose tongue there sits no slander, who will not harm a friend,
4 In whose eyes the depraved person is contemned, and who honoureth them that fear Jehovah; who, if he have sworn to his own hurt, changeth it not;
nor cruelly insult a neighbour, who regards with contempt those rejected by God; but honours those who obey the Lord, who keeps an oath, whatever the cost,
5 [He that] putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these [things] shall never be moved.
whose money is lent without interest, and never takes a bribe to hurt the innocent. The person who does these things will always stand firm.
