³He ^(A)does not slander ^[a]with his tongue,

But he ^(D)honors those who fear the Lord;
He ^(E)takes an oath to his own detriment, and does not change;
⁵He ^(F)does not ^[b]lend his money ^[c]at interest,
Nor ^(G)does he take a bribe against the innocent.
^(H)One who does these things will never be shaken.
