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

A psalm of David.

1 Lord, who may dwell in your sanctuary?
Who may live on your holy hill?

2 He whose walk is blameless
and who does what is righteous,
who speaks the truth from his heart

3 and has no slander on his tongue,
who does his neighbor no wrong
and casts no slur on his fellowman,

4 who despises a vile man
but honors those who fear the Lord,
who keeps his oath
even when it hurts,

5 who lends his money without usury
and does not accept a bribe against the innocent.

He who does these things
will never be shaken.
