Psalms 15

1 A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, who sojourns in Your tent? Who dwells in Your holy hill?

LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2 He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And speaking truth in his heart.

He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3 He has not slandered by his tongue, He has not done evil to his friend; And he has not lifted up reproach Against his neighbor.

He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

4 A rejected one [is] despised in his eyes, And he honors those fearing YHWH. He has sworn to endure evil, and does not change;

In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

5 He has not given his silver in usury, And has not taken a bribe against the innocent; Whoever is doing these is not moved for all time!

He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
