Psalms 101

1 I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To thee, O Jehovah, I will sing praises.

A Psalme of David. I will sing mercie and iudgement: vnto thee, O Lord, will I sing.

2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when will thou come to me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

I will doe wisely in the perfite way, till thou commest to me: I will walke in the vprightnes of mine heart in the middes of mine house.

3 I will set no base thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who turn aside. It shall not cleave to me.

I wil set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the worke of them that fall away: it shall not cleaue vnto me.

4 A perverse heart shall depart from me. I will know no evil thing.

A froward heart shall depart from me: I will knowe none euill.

5 He who slanders his neighbor secretly, him I will destroy. He who has a high look and a proud heart I will not endure.

Him that priuily slandereth his neighbour, wil I destroy: him that hath a proude looke and hie heart, I cannot suffer.

6 My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he shall minister to me.

Mine eyes shalbe vnto the faithfull of the lande, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfite way, he shall serue me.

7 He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood shall not be established before my eyes.

There shall no deceitful person dwell within mine house: he that telleth lyes, shall not remaine in my sight.

8 Morning by morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land, to cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of Jehovah.

Betimes will I destroy all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off all the workers of iniquitie from the Citie of the Lord.
