Good News Translation GNT
New International Version NIV
1 Lord, who may enter your Temple? Who may worship on Zion, your sacred hill?
1
LORD, who may dwell in your sacred tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
2 Those who obey God in everything and always do what is right, whose words are true and sincere,
2
The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart;
3 and who do not slander others. They do no wrong to their friends nor spread rumors about their neighbors.
3
whose tongue utters no slander, who does no wrong to a neighbor, and casts no slur on others;
4 They despise those whom God rejects, but honor those who obey the Lord. They always do what they promise, no matter how much it may cost.
4
who despises a vile person but honors those who fear the LORD; who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and does not change their mind;
5 They make loans without charging interest and cannot be bribed to testify against the innocent. Whoever does these things will always be secure.
5
who lends money to the poor without interest; who does not accept a bribe against the innocent. Whoever does these things will never be shaken.
