The Bible in Basic English BBE
1 O Lord, who may abide in your tent? Who may dwell on your holy hill?
1
<A Psalm. Of David.> Lord, who may have a resting-place in your tent, a living-place on your holy hill?
2 Those who walk blamelessly, and do what is right, and speak the truth from their heart;
2
He who goes on his way uprightly, doing righteousness, and saying what is true in his heart;
3 who do not slander with their tongue, and do no evil to their friends, nor take up a reproach against their neighbors;
3
Whose tongue is not false, who does no evil to his friend, and does not take away the good name of his neighbour;
4 in whose eyes the wicked are despised, but who honor those who fear the Lord; who stand by their oath even to their hurt;
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.
5 who do not lend money at interest, and do not take a bribe against the innocent. Those who do these things shall never be moved.
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.
