A psalm of David.

1 Lord, who can dwell in your tent?  * 15:1 Ps 61:4

Who can live on your holy mountain?  * 15:1 Ps 43:3

2 The one who lives blamelessly, practices righteousness,

and acknowledges the truth in his heart  * 15:1–2 Ps 24:3–5; Is 33:14–16  —

3 who does not slander with his tongue,  * 15:3 Pr 10:18

who does not harm his friend

or discredit his neighbor,  * 15:3 Pr 3:29

4 who despises the one rejected by the  Lord* 15:4 Lit in his eyes the rejected is despised

but honors those who fear the  Lord,  * 15:4 Gn 14:17–24; Ps 119:63

who keeps his word whatever the cost,  * 15:4 Lv 5:4; Dt 23:21–23

5 who does not lend his silver at interest  * 15:5 Lv 25:35–38; Dt 33:19

or take a bribe against the innocent  * 15:5 Ex 23:18; Dt 16:19  —

the one who does these things will never be shaken.  * 15:5 Ps 16:8; 112:6
