7Oh, that Israel’s deliverance would come out of Zion! *
when the Lord restores the fortunes of his people,
Jacob will rejoice and Israel be glad.

Third Day: Morning Prayer

15Domine, quis habitabit?

1Lord, who may dwell in your tabernacle? *
who may abide upon your holy hill?

2Whoever leads a blameless life and does what is right, *
who speaks the truth from his heart.

3There is no guile upon his tongue;
he does no evil to his friend; *
he does not heap contempt upon his neighbor.

4In his sight the wicked is rejected, *
but he honors those who fear the Lord.

5He has sworn to do no wrong *
and does not take back his word.

6He does not give his money in hope of gain, *
nor does he take a bribe against the innocent.

7Whoever does these things *
shall never be overthrown.

16Conserva me, Domine

1Protect me, O God, for I take refuge in you; *
I have said to the Lord, “You are my Lord,
my good above all other.”

Psalms 15, 16599
