PSALM 15
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm of David.
1Within thy tabernacle, Lord,
who shall abide with thee?
And in thy high and holy hill
who shall a dweller be?
2The man that walketh uprightly,
and worketh righteousness,
And as he thinketh in his heart,
so doth he truth express.
3Who doth not slander with his tongue,
nor to his friend doth hurt;
Nor yet against his neighbour doth
take up an ill report.
4In whose eyes vile men are despis'd;
but those that God do fear
He honoureth; and changeth not,
though to his hurt he swear.
5His coin puts not to usury,
nor take reward will he
Against the guiltless. Who doth
thus shall never moved be.

Psalms 15
15
A Description of Those Who May Dwell with Yahweh
A psalm of David.#The Hebrew Bible counts the superscription as the first verse of the psalm
1O Yahweh, who may reside in your tent?
Who may dwell on your holy mountain?
2He who walks blamelessly and does what is right.
He who speaks honestly in his heart.
3He does not slander with his tongue.
He does not harm his friend,
nor bring up#Literally “lift up” a disgrace against his neighbor.
4In his eyes a rejected one is contemptible,
but he honors those who respect Yahweh.
He takes an oath to his own injury and does not retract it.
5He does not lend his money at interest,
and does not take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things
will never be shaken.
