Psalms 15

1 A Melody of David. O Yahweh! Who shall be a guest in thy tent? Who shall abide in thy holy mountain?

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

2 He that walketh without blame, and doeth what is right, and speaketh truth with his heart;

He that walketh uprightly, and doeth righteousness, And speaketh the truth from his heart;

3 Hath not carried slander on his tongue, hath not done his friend a wrong, nor, a reproach, taken up 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 Despised in his sight, is the reprobate, but, them who revere Yahweh, he doth honour, he hath sworn to his neighbour, and will not change;

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 His silver, hath he not put out on interest, nor, a bribe against the innocent, hath he taken. He that doeth these things, shall not be shaken unto times age-abiding.

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.
