Psalms 101

1 A Psalm of David himself. I will sing mercy and judgment to you, O Lord. I will sing psalms.

Av David; ein salme. Um miskunn og rett vil eg syngja; deg, Herre, vil eg lova.

2 And I will have understanding within the immaculate way, when you will draw near to me. I wandered about in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

Eg vil agta på den ulastande veg - når kjem du til meg? Eg vil vandra i mitt hjartans uskyld i mitt hus.

3 I will not display any unjust thing before my eyes. I have hated those carrying out betrayals.

Ikkje set eg meg for augo nidingsverk, å gjera misgjerd hatar eg, slikt heng ikkje ved meg.

4 The perverse heart did not adhere to me. And the malignant, who turned away before me, I would not recognize.

Eit rangsnutt hjarta skal vika frå meg, vondt vil eg ikkje vita av.

5 The one who secretly detracted his neighbor, this one I pursued. The one with an arrogant eye and an insatiable heart, with that one I would not eat.

Den som løynleg lastar sin næste, han vil eg tyna; deim med stolte augo og ovmodigt hjarta kann eg ikkje tola.

6 My eyes looked toward the faithful of the earth, to sit with me. The one walking in the immaculate way, this one ministered to me.

Mine augo ser på dei trugne i landet, for eg vil dei skal bu hjå meg; den som vandrar på ulastande veg, han skal tena meg.

7 He who has acted arrogantly will not dwell in the midst of my house. He who has spoken iniquity was not guided with the sight of my eyes.

I mitt hus skal ingen få bu som fer med svik; den som talar lygn, skal ikkje standa for augo mine.

8 In the morning, I executed all the sinners of the earth, so that I might scatter all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.

Kvar morgon vil eg tyna alle ugudlege i landet, so eg kann rydja ut or Herrens by alle ugjerningsmenner.
