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.

Psalm 15
15
Who Shall Dwell on Your Holy Hill?
A Psalm of David.
1O Lord, #For ver. 1-5, see Ps. 24:3-5; Isa. 33:14-16 who shall sojourn in your #Ps. 61:4 tent?
Who shall dwell on your #See Ps. 2:6holy hill?
2He who #Prov. 28:18 walks blamelessly and #Ps. 106:3; [Matt. 6:1] does what is right
and #Zech. 8:16; Eph. 4:25; [John 1:47; Col. 3:9]speaks truth in his heart;
3who #Lev. 19:16; [Ps. 34:13] does not slander with his tongue
and does no evil to his neighbor,
nor #Ex. 23:1takes up a reproach against his friend;
4 # [Esth. 3:2] in whose eyes a vile person is despised,
but who honors those who fear the Lord;
who #[Judg. 11:35]swears to his own hurt and does not change;
5who #Ex. 22:25; Lev. 25:36; Deut. 23:19; Ezek. 18:8; 22:12 does not put out his money at interest
and #Ex. 23:8; Deut. 16:19 does not take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things shall never be #See Ps. 10:6moved.
