Psalms 15
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
1 Ref <A Psalm. Of David.> Lord, who may have a resting-place in your tent, a living-place on your holy hill?
2 Ref He who goes on his way uprightly, doing righteousness, and saying what is true in his heart;
3 Ref Whose tongue is not false, who does no evil to his friend, and does not take away the good name of his neighbour;
4 Ref Who gives honour to those who have the fear of the Lord, turning away from him who has not the Lord's approval. He who takes an oath against himself, and makes no change.
5 Ref He who does not put out his money at interest, or for payment give false decisions against men who have done no wrong. He who does these things will never be moved.
World English Bible (WEB)
1 Ref > Yahweh, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill?
2 Ref He who walks blamelessly does what is right, And speaks truth in his heart;
3 Ref He who doesn't slander with his tongue, Nor does evil to his friend, Nor casts slurs against his fellow man;
4 Ref In whose eyes a vile man is despised, But who honors those who fear Yahweh; He who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change;
5 Ref He who doesn't lend out his money for usury, Nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
1 Ref A Psalm of David. Jehovah, who doth sojourn in Thy tent? Who doth dwell in Thy holy hill?
2 Ref He who is walking uprightly, And working righteousness, And speaking truth in his heart.
3 Ref He hath not slandered by his tongue, He hath not done to his friend evil; And reproach he hath not lifted up Against his neighbour.
4 Ref Despised in his eyes `is' a rejected one, And those fearing Jehovah he doth honour. He hath sworn to suffer evil, and changeth not;
5 Ref His silver he hath not given in usury, And a bribe against the innocent Hath not taken; Whoso is doing these is not moved to the age!
