This very practical psalm outlines just what it means to live a life pleasing to God. The truly faithful will not speak unkindly or take advantage of their neighbors, but will always try to do what they know is right.

A Psalm of David.

O Lord, who shall sojourn in thy tent?

Who shall dwell on thy holy hill?

He who walks blamelessly, and does what is right,

and speaks truth from his heart;

who does not slander with his tongue,

and does no evil to his friend,

nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor;

in whose eyes a reprobate is despised,

but who honors those who fear the Lord;

who swears to his own hurt and does not change;

who does not put out his money at interest,

He who does these things shall never be moved.
