Psalms 15

1 Lord, who shall abide in your tabernacle? who shall dwell in your holy hill?

“A psalm of David.” LORD, who shall abide at thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell upon thy holy hill?

2 He that walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.

He that walketh uprightly, and doeth righteousness, And speaketh the truth from 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 that slandereth not with his tongue, That doeth no injury to his neighbor, And uttereth no reproach 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 whose eyes a vile person is contemned; But who honoreth them that fear the LORD; Who sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not;

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 that lendeth not his money for interest, And taketh not a bribe against the innocent: He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
