  1. Psalm 15:1 Lit sojourn

Who may (A)ascend into the (B)hill of the Lord?
And who may stand in His holy (C)place?
He who has (D)clean hands and a (E)pure heart,
Who has not (F)lifted up his soul [a]to falsehood
And has not (G)sworn deceitfully.
He shall receive a (H)blessing from the Lord
And [b](I)righteousness from the God of his salvation.
[c]This is the generation of those who (J)seek Him,
Who seek Your face—even Jacob. [d]Selah.

And it will be called the Highway of (C)Holiness.

And (D)fools will not wander on it.
