1 A Psalm of David. YHWH, who shall sojourn in Thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell upon Thy holy mountain?
1 LORD, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle? who shall inhabit thy holy mountain?
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh truth in his heart;
2 He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.
2 He who walks without blemish and who works justice.
3 That hath no slander upon his tongue, nor doeth evil to his fellow, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour;
3 Who has not spoken craftily with is tongue, neither has done evil to his neighbour, nor taken up a reproach against them that dwelt nearest to him.
3 He that deceives not with his tongue, nor does evil to his neighbor, nor accepts a bribe from his neighbor;
4 In whose eyes a vile person is despised, but he honoureth them that fear YHWH; he that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not;
4 In his sight an evil-worker is set at nought, but he honours them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbour, and disappoints him not.
4 In his sight, the malicious one has been reduced to nothing, but he glorifies those who fear the Lord. He who swears to his neighbor and does not deceive.
5 He that putteth not out his money on interest, nor taketh a bribe against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
5 He has not lent his money on usury, and has not received bribes against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
5 He who has not given his money in usury, nor accepted bribes against the innocent. He who does these things will be undisturbed for eternity.
