2 He who walks uprightly,
And works righteousness,
And speaks the ^atruth in his heart; ‡

3 He who ^adoes not backbite with his tongue,
Nor does evil to his neighbor,
^bNor does he¹ take up a reproach against his friend; ‡

4 ^aIn whose eyes a vile person is despised,
But he honors those who fear the Lord;
He who ^bswears to his own hurt and does not change; ‡

5 He who does not put out his money at usury,
Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things ^ashall never be moved. ‡
