³ Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord?
Who may stand in His holy place?^(A)
4 The one who has clean hands and a pure heart,^(B)
who has not set his mind^[a] on what is false,^(C)
and who has not sworn deceitfully.
⁵ He will receive blessing from the Lord,^(D)
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.^(E)

¹⁴ The sinners in Zion are afraid;
trembling seizes the ungodly:
“Who among us can dwell with a consuming fire?^(A)
Who among us can dwell with ever-burning flames?”
¹⁵ The one who lives righteously
and speaks rightly,^(B)
who refuses gain from extortion,
whose hand never takes a bribe,
who stops his ears from listening to murderous plots^[a]
and shuts his eyes to avoid endorsing evil^[b](C)—
¹⁶ he will dwell on the heights;
his refuge will be the rocky fortresses,
his food provided, his water assured.
