Psalm 15

Who Shall Dwell on Your Holy Hill?

A Psalm of David.

1  O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tent?
Who shall dwell on your holy hill?

2  He who walks blamelessly and does what is right
and speaks truth in his heart;
3  who does not slander with his tongue
and does no evil to his neighbor,
nor takes up a reproach against his friend;
4  in whose eyes a vile person is despised,
but who honors those who fear the Lord;
who swears to his own hurt and does not change;
5  who does not put out his money at interest
and does not 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 be a guest in your home?
Who may live on your holy hill?

2 Whoever lives a blameless life,
does what is right,
and speaks honestly.

3 He does not slander,
or do harm to others,
or insult his neighbor.

4 He despises a reprobate,
but honors the Lord’s loyal followers.
He makes firm commitments and does not renege on his promise.

5 He does not charge interest when he lends his money.
He does not take bribes to testify against the innocent.
The one who lives like this will never be upended.
