Book One (Psalms 1-41) "Concerning Man"

A Psalm of David.


1:   LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2:   He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3:   He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

4:   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.
5:   He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent.

He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
