Psalms 15

1 A psalm of David. Who may enter your sanctuary, Lord? Who may come into your presence on your holy mountain?

מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד יְהֹוָה מִי־יָגוּר בְּאׇהֳלֶךָ מִֽי־יִשְׁכֹּן בְּהַר קׇדְשֶֽׁךָ׃

2 Those who live without fault and do what is right, those who sincerely tell the truth.

הוֹלֵךְ תָּמִים וּפֹעֵל צֶדֶק וְדֹבֵר אֱמֶת בִּלְבָבֽוֹ׃

3 They do not slander, do not treat their neighbors badly, do not gossip about people they know.

לֹֽא־רָגַל ׀ עַל־לְשֹׁנוֹ לֹא־עָשָׂה לְרֵעֵהוּ רָעָה וְחֶרְפָּה לֹא־נָשָׂא עַל־קְרֹבֽוֹ׃

4 They reject people the Lord has rejected, but honor those who follow the Lord. They keep their promises even when it's hard to do. They don't change their minds.

נִבְזֶה ׀ בְּֽעֵינָיו נִמְאָס וְאֶת־יִרְאֵי יְהֹוָה יְכַבֵּד נִשְׁבַּע לְהָרַע וְלֹא יָמִֽר׃

5 They lend money without charging interest. They don't take bribes to testify against the innocent. Those who act like this will never ever fall.

כַּסְפּוֹ ׀ לֹא־נָתַן בְּנֶשֶׁךְ וְשֹׁחַד עַל־נָקִי לֹא לָקָח עֹֽשֵׂה־אֵלֶּה לֹא יִמּוֹט לְעוֹלָֽם׃
