詩篇 101

1 大衛的詩。 我要歌唱慈愛和公平； 耶和華啊，我要向你歌頌！

Of David, a psalm. If kindness and justice I sing, making melody to you, Lord.

2 我要用智慧行完全的道。 你幾時到我這裏來呢？ 我要存完全的心行在我家中。

I would look to the way that is blameless, and make it my own. Within my own house I would walk with an innocent heart.

3 邪僻的事，我都不擺在我眼前； 悖逆人所做的事，我甚恨惡， 不容沾在我身上。

I would never direct my eyes to a thing that is base. The impulse to stray I abhor it shall not cling to me.

4 彎曲的心思，我必遠離； 一切的惡人，我不認識。

Far from me be perverseness of heart, or kinship with evil.

5 在暗中讒謗他鄰居的，我必將他滅絕； 眼目高傲、心裏驕縱的，我必不容他。

Who slanders their neighbor in secret, I bring them to silence: haughty looks and proud hearts I will not abide.

6 我眼要看國中的誠實人，叫他們與我同住； 行為完全的，他要伺候我。

I will favor the true in the land, they shall live in my court. Those who walk in a way that is blameless will be my attendant.

7 行詭詐的，必不得住在我家裏； 說謊話的，必不得立在我眼前。

No one will live in my house who practises guile. No one that speaks a lie will abide in my presence.

8 我每日早晨要滅絕國中所有的惡人， 好把一切作孽的從耶和華的城裏剪除。

Morn by morn I will wholly wipe out all the bad in the land, and cut off from the Lord’s own city all workers of evil.
