1(15) A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tabernacle? and who shall dwell in your holy mountain?
1For the Chief Musician. By David. The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt. They have done abominable deeds. There is no one who does good.
2He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.
2Yahweh looked down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there were any who understood, who sought after God.
3Who has not spoken craftily with his tongue, neither has done evil to his neighbor, nor taken up a reproach against them that lived nearest to him.
3They have all gone aside. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.
4In his sight an evil-worker is set at nothing, but he honors them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbor, and disappoints [him] not.
4Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on Yahweh?
5He has not lent his money on usury, and has not received bribes against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
5There they were in great fear, for God is in the generation of the righteous.
