- Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle?
who shall dwell in thy holy hill? - He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness,
and speaketh the truth in his heart. - He that backbiteth not with his tongue,
nor doeth evil to his neighbour,
nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. - In whose eyes a vile person is contemned;
but he honoureth them that fear the Lord.
He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not. - He that putteth not out his money to usury,
nor taketh reward against the innocent.
He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
