Psalm 15:1-Psalm 16:1 - A Description Of The Godly

¹ ([Psalm of David]) O Jehovah, who may stay in your tent? Who may reside on your holy mountain?

² The one who walks with integrity and does what is righteous. He speaks the truth in his heart.

³ The one who does not malign with his tongue, do evil to a friend, or bring disgrace on his neighbor or close friend. ⁴ The one who despises those rejected by God but honors those who reverence (respect) Jehovah. The one who makes a promise and does not break it even though he is hurt by it. ⁵ The one who does not collect interest on a loan or take a bribe against an innocent person. Whoever does these things will never fall or be upset.

¹ ([Psalm of David]) Preserve and protect me, O God, because I take refuge in you.
