Psalm 15

O LORD, who shall sojourn in your tent? 
   Who shall dwell on your holy hill? 
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.

Spurgeon:
"Who shall be admitted to be one of the household of God, to sojourn under His roof and enjoy communion with Himself? ... Who shall be a citizen of Zion, and an inhabitant of the heavenly Jerusalem? ... In perfection this holiness is found only in the Man of Sorrows, but in a measure it is wrought in all His people by the Holy Ghost."
