Psalms 15 Summary
Qualities of dwellers in God's tabernacle
The psalmist asks who shall dwell in the LORD's tabernacle and holy hill. The answer is he that walks uprightly and works righteousness, speaking truth in his heart and not backbiting. He does no evil to his neighbor, despises the vile, and honors those who fear the LORD. He keeps his oaths though to his own hurt, does not lend at usury or take reward against the innocent. Such a righteous person shall never be moved.
