Psalm 15
1 Lord, who may dwell in your tabernacle? •
Who may rest upon your holy hill?
2 Whoever leads an uncorrupt life •
and does the thing that is right;
3 Who speaks the truth from the heart •
and bears no deceit on the tongue;
4 Who does no evil to a friend •
and pours no scorn on a neighbour;
5 In whose sight the wicked are not esteemed, •
but who honours those who fear the Lord.
6 Whoever has sworn to a neighbour •
and never goes back on that word;
7 Who does not lend money in hope of gain, •
nor takes a bribe against the innocent;
8 Whoever does these things •
shall never fall.
Lord, lead us to our heavenly home
by single steps of self-restraint
and deeds of righteousness;
through the grace of Jesus Christ our Lord.
