Psalms 15
15
What God Requires#Ps 15 Hebrew title: A psalm by David.
1 LORD, who may enter your Temple?
Who may worship on Zion, your sacred hill?#15.1 sacred hill: See 2.6.
2Those who obey God in everything
and always do what is right,
whose words are true and sincere,
3and who do not slander others.
They do no wrong to their friends
nor spread rumours about their neighbours.
4They despise those whom God rejects,
but honour those who obey the LORD.
They always do what they promise,
no matter how much it may cost.
5They make loans without charging interest
and cannot be bribed to testify against the innocent.
Whoever does these things will always be secure.

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.
