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

1 [A Psalm of David.] LORD, who shall abide in your tabernacle? who shall dwell in your holy hill?

2 He that walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.

3 He that backbites not with his tongue, nor does evil to his neighbor, nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor. 4 In whose eyes a vile person is despised; but he honors them that fear the LORD. He that swears to his own hurt, and changes not. 5 He that puts not out his money at interest, nor takes reward against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.

1 [A miktam of David.] Preserve me, O God: for in you do I put my trust.
