< Psalms 15 >
1 [A Psalm by David.] YHWH, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy mountain?
“A psalm of David.” LORD, who shall abide at thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell upon thy holy hill?
2 He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart.
He that walketh uprightly, and doeth righteousness, And speaketh the truth from his heart;
3 He doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor lifts up an insult against his neighbor.
He that slandereth not with his tongue, That doeth no injury to his neighbor, And uttereth no reproach against his neighbor;
4 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.
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 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 that lendeth not his money for interest, And taketh not a bribe against the innocent: He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
