Psalms 15
1The inscription of a title: of David himself. Preserve me, O Lord, because I have hoped in you.
2I have said to the Lord: “You are my God, so you have no need of my goodness.”
3As for the saints, who are in his land: he has made all my desires wonderful in them.
4Their infirmities have been multiplied; after this, they acted more quickly. I will not gather for their convocations of blood, nor will I remember their names with my lips.
5The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup. It is you who will restore my inheritance to me.
6The lots have fallen upon me with clarity. And, indeed, my inheritance has been very clear to me.
7I will bless the Lord, who has bestowed understanding upon me. Moreover, my temperament has also corrected me, even through the night.
8I have made provision for the Lord always in my sight. For he is at my right hand, so that I may not be disturbed.
9Because of this, my heart has been joyful, and my tongue has exulted. Moreover, even my body will rest in hope.
10For you will not abandon my soul to Hell, nor will you allow your holy one to see corruption.
11You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy by your countenance. At your right hand are delights, even to the end.
1Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
2He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
4In 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.
5He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
