Psalms 15

NIV

MSG

1 LORD, who may dwell in your sacred tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
1 God, who gets invited to dinner at your place? How do we get on your guest list?
2 The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart;
2 "Walk straight, act right, tell the truth.
3 whose tongue utters no slander, who does no wrong to a neighbor, and casts no slur on others;
3 "Don't hurt your friend, don't blame your neighbor;
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;
4 despise the despicable. "Keep your word even when it costs you,
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.
5 make an honest living, never take a bribe. "You'll never get blacklisted if you live like this."
