About this psalm

A question and its answer, in five verses. LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? The reply is a list, and none of it is ceremonial: walking uprightly, speaking truth in the heart, not backbiting, keeping an oath that has turned out to cost something, lending without usury. The last line is the promise — He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

¹Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?²He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.³He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.⁴In 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.⁵He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
