< Psalms 15 >
1 Lord, who shall abide in your tabernacle? who shall dwell in your holy hill?
[A Psalm by David.] YHWH, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?
2 He that walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.
He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart.
3 He that backbites not with his tongue, nor does evil to his neighbour, nor takes up a reproach against his neighbour.
He doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.
4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honors them that fear the LORD. He that swears to his own hurt, and changes not.
In his eyes a vile man is despised, but he honors those who fear YHWH. He keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change it.
5 He that puts not out his money to interest, nor takes reward 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.
