Psalms 15:1

Who may dwell (have their temporary abode) in your tabernacle?
Who may dwell (have their permanent abode) on your holy mountain?
[In response to these questions follow the requirements that must be met in order to approach the Lord. They are expressed alternately in terms of what should be done and what should not be done. God is holy and demands perfection in word and deed. The psalm has several points of contact with the Ten Commandments, see Ex. 20:1–17. The psalm has sometimes been called "David's Sermon on the Mount," see Matt. 5:20. Jesus concludes six points in the Sermon on the Mount with the words "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect," see Matt. 5:20, 48. Jesus does not raise the bar to weed out those who are not good enough. He does so to make us realize that we cannot do it without his grace.]
