Psalm 15:2-5

New American Standard Bible

²One who ^(A)walks with integrity, practices righteousness,
And ^(B)speaks truth in his heart.
³He ^(C)does not slander ^[a]with his tongue,
Nor ^(D)do evil to his neighbor,
Nor ^(E)bring shame on his friend;
⁴A despicable person is despised in his eyes,
But he ^(F)honors those who fear the Lord;
He ^(G)takes an oath to his own detriment, and does not change;
⁵He ^(H)does not ^[b]lend his money ^[c]at interest,
Nor ^(I)does he take a bribe against the innocent.
^(J)One who does these things will never be shaken.
