< 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 by David. Yahweh, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill?
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth from his heart.
He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart;
3 [He that] slandereth not with his tongue, doeth not evil to his companion, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour;
he who doesn’t slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man;
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;
in whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear Yahweh; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn’t change;
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.
he who doesn’t lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.
