Psalms 101

1 A Psalm of David. I will sing to thee, O Lord, of mercy and judgment; I will sing a psalm,

達味的詩歌。

2 and I will be wise in a blameless way. When wilt thou come to me? I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

我要歌頌仁愛與公正，上主，我還要向您吟詠。

3 I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful ting; I have hated transgressors.

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 A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, forasmuch as he turns away from me.

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 Him that privily speaks against his neighbour, him have I driven from [me]: he that is proud in look and insatiable in heart, —with him I have not eaten.

敗壞的心，我要達離；邪惡我不認識。

6 Mine eyes [shall be] upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me.

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 proud doer dwelt not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not in my sight.

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 Early did I slay all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city of the Lord all that work iniquity.

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。
