Psalms 101

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.
