Psalm 15

1 Lord, who may abide in Your tabernacle?

The Character of Those Who May Dwell with the LordA Psalm of David. Who may dwell in Your holy hill?

2 He who walks uprightly, And works righteousness, And speaks the truth in his heart;3 He who does not backbite with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor does he take up a reproach against his friend;4 In whose eyes a vile person is despised, But he honors those who fear the Lord; He who swears to his own hurt and does not change;5 He who does not put out his money at usury, Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved.

Psalm 15

Description of a Citizen of Zion.

A Psalm of David.

1 O LORD, who may abide in Your tent?
Who may dwell on Your holy hill?

2 He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness,
And speaks truth in his heart.

3 He does not slander with his tongue,
Nor does evil to his neighbor,
Nor takes up a reproach against his friend;

4 In whose eyes a reprobate is despised,
But who honors those who fear the LORD;
He swears to his own hurt and does not change;

5 He does not put out his money tat interest,
Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things will never be shaken.
