Psalms 15
15
(A psalm by David.)
Who May Worship the Lord?
1Who may stay in God's temple
or live on the holy mountain
of the Lord?
2Only those who obey God
and do as they should.
They speak the truth
3and don't spread gossip;
they treat others fairly
and don't say cruel things.
4They hate worthless people,
but show respect for all
who worship the Lord.
And they keep their promises,
no matter what the cost.
5They lend their money
without charging interest,
and they don't take bribes
to hurt the innocent.
Those who do these things
will always stand firm.

Tehillim (Psa) 15
15
1A psalm of David:
Adonai, who can rest in your tent?
Who can live on your holy mountain?
2Those who live a blameless life,
who behave uprightly,
who speak truth from their hearts
3and keep their tongues from slander;
who never do harm to others
or seek to discredit neighbors;
4who look with scorn on the vile,
but honor those who fear Adonai;
who hold to an oath, no matter the cost;
5who refuse usury when they lend money
and refuse a bribe to damage the innocent.
Those who do these things
never will be moved.
