Psalms 15

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

[A Psalm by David.] LORD, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?

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

He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks 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 doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.

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 his eyes a vile man is despised, but he honors those who fear the LORD. He keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change it.

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 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.
