The one who does not slander with his tongue,
    do evil to a friend,
        or bring disgrace on his neighbor.

The one who despises those rejected by Yahweh
    but honors those who fear Yahweh.

    The one who makes a promise and does not break it,
        even though he is hurt by it.

The one who does not collect interest on a loan
    or take a bribe against an innocent person.

Whoever does these things will never be shaken.
