Psalms 15

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!

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.

King James Version (KJV)

1 Ref Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2 Ref He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3 Ref He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

4 Ref In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

5 Ref He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
