1 sn Psalm 15. This psalm describes the character qualities that one must possess to be allowed access to the divine presence.
2 tn Heb “Who may live as a resident alien in your tent?”
3 sn In this context the Lord’s holy hill probably refers to Zion/Jerusalem. See Isa 66:20; Joel 2:1; 3:17; Zech 8:3; Pss 2:6; 43:3; 48:1; 87:1; Dan 9:16.
4 tn Heb “I will live as a resident alien in your tent permanently.” The cohortative is understood here as indicating resolve. Another option is to take it as expressing a request, “please let me live” (cf. NASB, NRSV).
5 sn I will find shelter in the protection of your wings. The metaphor compares God to a protective mother bird.
