Psalms 15:5

who does not lend money at interest,
who refuses to be bribed (take bribes) to condemn an innocent person.
[The prefix in the Hebrew word for usury, be-neshech ("through" interest), indicates that the motive for giving the loan is precisely the interest. It is through the interest that one wants to increase one's wealth. The word comes from the verb "to bite" and describes how the lender gets a share of the sum. Taking advantage of someone in a position of dependence in this way is abhorrent, see Ezekiel 18:13. The Torah (Moses' teachings) urges lending money without interest to one's fellow countrymen, but it is permissible to charge reasonable interest to a foreigner, see Lev. 25:35-37; Ex. 22:25; Deut. 23:19-20.] [Now follows a summary requirement that is thematically related to verse 2.]
Anyone who does so (has a habit of living that way) shall never fall (waver, be overturned).
[Whoever does so shall be shown and dwell with God. Here comes the answer to the introductory questions in verse 1.]
