Psalm 15:2-4

Easy-to-Read Version

² Only those who live pure lives, do what is right,
    and speak the truth from their hearts.
³ Such people don’t say bad things about others.
    They don’t do things to hurt their neighbors.
    They don’t tell shameful things about those close to them.
⁴ They hate those who fail to please God
    and honor those who respect the Lord.
If they make a promise to their neighbor,
    they do what they promised.^[a]
