Psalms 15 Comparison: New Heart English Bible vs King James Version
Psalms 15
1Lord, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill?
2He who walks blamelessly does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart;
3He who doesn't slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man;
4In whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear the Lord; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn't change;
5he who doesn't lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.
Psalms 15
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.
