Psalms Chapter 15

A Psalm of David

1 LORD, who can live in your Tabernacle?

      Who can reside on your holy hill?

2 Those who act with integrity,

            who do what’s right and tell the truth;

                  3who don’t mistreat their neighbors

                  or join in gossiping about their friends;

                  4who despise reprobates,

                           but honor people that respect the LORD,

            who even swear to their own disadvantage

                  and carry it through,

                  5that don’t charge interest

                  or accept bribes against innocent people.

People like that will always be secure.                                  

Ps 15:1-5
