1(16) A writing of David. Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in you.
1Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
2I said to the Lord, You are my Lord; for you have no need of my goodness.
2He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3On behalf of the saints that are in his land, he has magnified all his pleasure in them.
3He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
4Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hasted. I will by no means assemble their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.
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.
5The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: you are he that restores my inheritance to me.
5He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
