O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy hill? He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness, and speaks truth in his heart. He does not slander with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor takes up a reproach against his friend; In whose eyes a reprobate is despised, But who honors those who fear the LORD; He swears to his own hurt and does not change; He does not put out his money at interest, Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken.
The person David describes as being worthy of abiding in the tent of God and dwelling in God’s temple is the person we should all strive to be. We should strive to speak truth and not evil. We should strive do good to our neighbors and friends. We should strive to be holy as God is Holy. At the same time our pursuit of holiness is not an end in itself; rather it is a means of closing the distance between us and God.
