Psalm 15 and usury

Not noticed this mention of usury or monetary interest before in Psalm 15, verse 5 but this post by The Ugley Vicar highlighted it. Excellent!

Who Shall Dwell on Your Holy Hill?
1Lordwho shall sojourn in your tent?
Who shall dwell on your holy hill?
2He who walks blamelessly and does what is right
and speaks truth in his heart;
3who does not slander with his tongue
and does no evil to his neighbor,
nor takes up a reproach against his friend;
4in whose eyes a vile person is despised,
but who honors those who fear the Lord;
who swears to his own hurt and does not change;
5who does not put out his money at interest
and does not take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things shall never be moved.
