Psalms 15:4 in Context — Psalms 15

2 Aquele que anda sinceramente, e pratica a justiça; e com seu coração fala a verdade;

3 [Aquele que] não murmura com sua língua; não faz mal ao seu companheiro, nem aceita insulto contra seu próximo.

4 Em seus olhos despreza à pessoa que é digna de reprovação, mas honra aos que temem ao SENHOR; mantém seu juramento até sob [seu próprio] prejuízo, e não muda.

5 [Tal pessoa] não empresta seu dinheiro com juros; nem aceita suborno contra o inocente; quem faz isto, nunca se abalará.
