1Lord, who may dwell in your sacred tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
2The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart;
3whose tongue utters no slander, who does no wrong to a neighbor, and casts no slur on others;
4who 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;
5who lends money to the poor without interest; who does not accept a bribe against the innocent. Whoever does these things will never be shaken.
