15 He who (A)walks righteously and speaks uprightly;
He who rejects greedy gain of [a]oppression,
And shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe;
He who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshed
And (B)shuts his eyes from looking upon evil;
16 He will dwell on the heights,
(C)His refuge will be the strongholds of the cliffs;
(D)His bread will be given him,
His water will be sure.

17 Your eyes will behold (E)the King in His beauty;
They will see (F)a far-distant land.

    and shut their eyes(E) against contemplating evil—
16 they are the ones who will dwell on the heights,(F)
    whose refuge(G) will be the mountain fortress.(H)
Their bread will be supplied,
    and water will not fail(I) them.

17 Your eyes will see the king(J) in his beauty(K)
    and view a land that stretches afar.(L)
