15:1 The Question: O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy hill?

15:2-5a The Answer: The character of the one who continues to be in God's presence
vs. 2 Three participles describe him positively: He walks with integrity, works righteousness, speaks truth
vs. 3 negatively he does not slander with his tongue, do evil to a neighbor, or take up a reproach against a friend
vs. 4 He demonstrates who he is by the company he keeps and he keeps his word even when it is painful.
vs. 5 He does not put out his money at interest and he does not take a bribe to strike down the innocent.

15:5c The Promise: He who does these things will not be shaken.
