< Psalms 101 >
1 A Psalm of David. I will sing to you, O Lord, of mercy and judgement; I will sing a psalm,
Un salmo de David. Cantaré de tu inmenso amor y de tu buen juicio. Cantaré alabanzas a ti, Señor.
2 and I will be wise in a blameless way. When will you come to me? I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.
Me aseguraré de que mi vida sea irreprochable. ¿Cuándo vendrás a ayudarme? Mi vida será íntegra, incluso en privado.
3 I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful ting; I have hated transgressors.
No me fijaré en nada malo. Porque odio hacer el mal, y no quiero tener nada que ver con él.
4 A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, forasmuch as he turns away from me.
No tendré malos pensamientos, ni consideraré acción perversa, por más mínima que sea.
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.
Haré callar a cualquiera que levante calumnias contra su prójimo. No toleraré a nadie que sea orgulloso o arrogante.
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.
Yo busco a gente leal que viva conmigo; solo aquellos que son dignos de confianza me servirán.
7 The proud doer lived not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not in my sight.
Nadie deshonesto vivirá en mi casa; ningún mentiroso será permitido en mi presencia.
8 Early did I kill all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city of the Lord all that work iniquity.
Trabajo cada día para silenciar a los malvados de la tierra, para librar a la ciudad del Señor de todos los que hacen mal.
