The Bible in Basic English BBE
Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB
1 <A Psalm. Of David.> Lord, who may have a resting-place in your tent, a living-place on your holy hill?
1
5 (Mizmor Dovid) Hashem, who shall abide in Thy Ohel? Who shall dwell in Thy Har Kodesh?
2 He who goes on his way uprightly, doing righteousness, and saying what is true in his heart;
2
He that walketh blamelessly, and worketh tzedek, and speaketh emes from his lev.
3 Whose tongue is not false, who does no evil to his friend, and does not take away the good name of his neighbour;
3
He that backbiteth not with his leshon, nor doeth ra’ah to his re’a, nor taketh up a slur to discredit his neighbor.
4 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.
4
In whose eyes a vile person is despicable; but he honoreth them that fear Hashem. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.
5 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.
5
He that putteth not out his kesef to neshekh (usury), nor taketh bribes against the naki (innocent). He that doeth these things shall never be shaken.
