Majority Standard Bible

1 A Psalm of David. O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy mountain?

2 He who walks with integrity and practices righteousness, who speaks the truth from his heart,

3 who has no slander on his tongue, who does no harm to his neighbor, who casts no scorn on his friend,

4 who despises the vile but honors those who fear the LORD, who does not revise a costly oath,

5 who lends his money without interest and refuses a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken.

KJV

1 ¶ A Psalm of David. LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3 [He that] backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

4 In 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.

5 [He that] putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these [things] shall never be moved.

1545 Luther's English Bible (LED)

The doings of the faithful.

1 A psalm of David. O LORD, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell in thy holy mountain?

2 He that walketh without change, and doeth right, and speaketh the truth from the heart;

3 He that slandereth not with his tongue, neither doeth evil to his neighbour, nor reproacheth his neighbour;

4 He that esteemeth not the wicked, but honoureth the godly: he that sweareth unto his neighbour, and keepeth it;

5 He that giveth not his money usurpingly, and taketh not gifts above the innocent: he that doeth these things shall abide.

1545 Luther's English Bible (LED)

Machine-translated from Luther's final 1545 German Bible

The LED is an English rendering of Martin Luther's final 1545 German Bible. According to BackToLuther, it was produced by using the DeepL Translator on Luther's German text, then processed, polished, formatted, and hyperlinked for reading, while preserving chapter headings and other notations from orthodox German Lutheran Bibles.
