< Psalms 15 >
1 A Psalme of Dauid. Lord, who shall dwell in thy Tabernacle? who shall rest in thine holy Mountaine?
A psalm of David. Lord, who can be guest in your tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
2 He that walketh vprightly and worketh righteousnes, and speaketh the trueth in 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, nor doeth euill to his neighbour, nor receiueth a false report against his neighbour.
on whose tongue there sits no slander, who will not harm a friend,
4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned, but he honoureth them that feare the Lord: he that sweareth to his owne hinderance and changeth not.
nor cruelly insult a neighbor, who regards with contempt those rejected by God; but honors those who obey the Lord, who keeps an oath, whatever the cost,
5 He that giueth not his money vnto vsurie, nor taketh reward against the innocent: hee that doeth these things, shall neuer be moued.
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.
