5He that putteth not out his money to gusury,

hNor taketh reward against the innocent.

He that doeth these things ishall never be moved.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

He who walks blamelessly and does what is right

and speaks truth in his heart;

who does not slander with his tongue

and does no evil to his neighbor,

nor takes up a reproach against his friend;

in whose eyes a vile person is despised,

but who honors those who fear the Lord;

who swears to his own hurt and does not change;

who does not put out his money at interest

and does not take a bribe against the innocent.

He who does these things shall never be moved.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

The one whose walk is blameless,

who does what is righteous,

who speaks the truth from their heart;

whose tongue utters no slander,

who does no wrong to a neighbor,

and casts no slur on others;

who despises a vile person

but honors those who fear the Lord;

who keeps an oath even when it hurts,

and does not change their mind;

who lends money to the poor without interest;

who does not accept a bribe against the innocent.

Whoever does these things

will never be shaken.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

The one who lives blamelessly, practices righteousness,

and acknowledges the truth in his heart—

who does not slander with his tongue,

who does not harm his friend

or discredit his neighbor,

who despises the one rejected by the Lord

but honors those who fear the Lord,

who keeps his word whatever the cost,

who does not lend his silver at interest

or take a bribe against the innocent—

the one who does these things will never be shaken.

NLTNew Living Translation

Those who lead blameless lives and do what is right,

speaking the truth from sincere hearts.

Those who refuse to gossip

or harm their neighbors

or speak evil of their friends.

Those who despise flagrant sinners,

and honor the faithful followers of the Lord,

and keep their promises even when it hurts.

Those who lend money without charging interest,

and who cannot be bribed to lie about the innocent.

Such people will stand firm forever.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

He who walks blamelessly and does what is right.

He who speaks honestly in his heart.

He does not slander with his tongue.

He does not harm his friend,

nor bring up a disgrace against his neighbor.

In his eyes a rejected one is contemptible,

but he honors those who respect Yahweh.

He takes an oath to his own injury and does not retract it.

He does not lend his money at interest,

and does not take a bribe against the innocent.

He who does these things

will never be shaken.
