Dauid describeth a citizen of Sion.

¹ [A Psalme of Dauid.] Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?¹

² Hee that walketh vprightly, and worketh righteousnesse, and speaketh the trueth in his heart.²

³ Hee that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doth euill to his neighbour, nor taketh vp a reproach against his neighbour.³

⁴ In whose eies a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that feare the Lord: he that sweareth to his owne hurt, and changeth not.

⁵ He that putteth not out his money to vsury, nor taketh reward against the innocent: he that doth these things, shall neuer be moued.⁵
