< Psalms 15 >
1 A Psalm of David. LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tabernacle? and who shall dwell in your holy mountain?
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.
3 [He that] backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbor, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor.
Who has not spoken craftily with is tongue, neither has done evil to his neighbour, nor taken up a reproach against them that lived nearest to him.
4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoreth them that fear the LORD. [He that] sweareth to [his own] hurt, and changeth not.
In his sight an evil-worker is set at nothing, but he honours them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbour, and disappoints [him] not.
5 [He that] putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these [things] shall never be moved.
He has not lent his money on usury, and has not received bribes against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
