< Psalms 15 >
1 [A Psalm by David.] Jehovah, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?
A Psalm of David. O Lord, who will dwell in your tabernacle? Or who will rest on your holy mountain?
2 He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart.
He who walks without blemish and who works justice.
3 He doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.
He who speaks the truth in his heart, who has not acted deceitfully with his tongue, and has not done evil to his neighbor, and has not taken up a reproach against his neighbors.
4 In his eyes a vile man is despised, but he honors those who fear Jehovah. He keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change it.
In his sight, the malicious one has been reduced to nothing, but he glorifies those who fear the Lord. He who swears to his neighbor and does not deceive.
5 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.
He who has not given his money in usury, nor accepted bribes against the innocent. He who does these things will be undisturbed for eternity.
