Worketh - Makes it his business to do justly, to give to every one his due, first to God, and then to men. Speaketh - His words and professions to God and men, agree with the thoughts and purposes of his heart. | | 15:3 | He - He that doth not speak evil of his neighbour.Neighbour - That is, any man. Nor taketh - Into his mouth, doth not raise it, neither spread or propagate it; or believe it without sufficient reason. | | 15:4 | Vile - An ungodly man. Honoureth - He highly esteems and loves them, though they be mean as to their worldly condition, and though they may differ from him in some opinions or practices of lesser moment.Sweareth - A promissory oath.

Changeth not - His purpose, but continues firm and resolved to perform his promise. | | 15:5 | To usury - In such a manner as is contrary to God's law: of which see otherwise, Exodus 22:25 ps 15: , Leviticus 25:36 , 37, &c.Reward - Or, a bribe for him who hath a bad cause.
