Psalm 15 ~ Psalm 15

picture

1 LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in the mountain of thy holiness?

Jehovah, who shall sojourn in thy tent? who shall dwell in the hill of thy holiness?

2 H e that walks in integrity and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.

He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth from his heart.

3 H e that does not backbite with his tongue nor do evil to his neighbour nor take up a reproach against his neighbour.

slandereth not with his tongue, doeth not evil to his companion, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour;

4 I n whose eyes the vile person is not esteemed; but he honours those that fear the LORD. He that swears to his own hurt and does not change.

In whose eyes the depraved person is contemned, and who honoureth them that fear Jehovah; who, if he have sworn to his own hurt, changeth it not;

5 H e that does not put out his money to usury nor take a bribe against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.

putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these shall never be moved.
