Psalms 101

1 A Psalm. Of David. I will make a song of mercy and righteousness; to you, O Lord, will I make melody.

達味的詩歌。

2 I will do wisely in the way of righteousness: O when will you come to me? I will be walking in my house with a true heart.

我要歌頌仁愛與公正，上主，我還要向您吟詠。

3 I will not put any evil thing before my eyes; I am against all turning to one side; I will not have it near me.

我要走齊全的路，您何時來我這裏？我要在我的家中，以純潔的心度日。

4 The false heart I will send away from me: I will not have an evil-doer for a friend.

我決不把邪僻的事情放置在我的眼前；我痛恨為非作歹的人，不讓他與我相聯。

5 I will put to death anyone who says evil of his neighbour secretly; the man with a high look and a heart of pride is disgusting to me.

敗壞的心，我要達離；邪惡我不認識。

6 My eyes will be on those of good faith in the land, so that they may be living in my house; he who is walking in the right way will be my servant.

暗中設計毀謗同僚的人，我要消滅他；高視闊步，心高氣傲的人，我不容忍他。

7 The worker of deceit will not come into my house; the false man will have no place before my eyes.

我眼注視國內忠誠的人，讓他們與我同住，在齊全道路行走的人才可作我的忠僕。7. 詭詐欺騙的人，不得住在我的宮內，說謊不實的人，不得在我眼前存在。

8 Morning by morning will I put to death all the sinners in the land, so that all evil-doers may be cut off from Jerusalem.

我每日清早要滅絕在國所有罪人，我要由上主的城內剷除所有作惡的人。
