Psalms 101

1 A psalm of David. I will sing of your faithful love and good judgment. I will sing praises to you, Lord.

`The salm of Dauid. Lord, Y schal synge to thee; merci and doom.

2 I will make sure my life is blameless. When will you come and help me? My life will be one of integrity even in private.

I schal synge, and Y schal vndurstonde in a weie with out wem; whanne thou schalt come to me. I yede perfitli in the innocence of myn herte; in the myddil of myn hous.

3 I will not look at anything evil. I hate doing wrong—I won't have anything to do with it.

I settide not forth bifore myn iyen an vniust thing; Y hatide hem that maden trespassyngis.

4 I won't think bad thoughts—I won't even consider anything evil.

A schrewide herte cleuede not to me; Y knewe not a wickid man bowynge awei fro me.

5 I will silence anyone who secretly slanders their neighbor. I won't tolerate anyone who is proud and arrogant.

I pursuede hym; that bacbitide priueli his neiybore. With the proude iye and an herte vnable to be fillid; Y eet not with this.

6 I look for faithful people to live with me; only those who are trustworthy will serve me.

Myn iyen weren to the feithful men of erthe, that thei sitte with me; he that yede in a weie with out wem, mynystride to me.

7 No one who is dishonest will live in my house; no liars will be allowed in my presence.

He that doith pride, schal not dwelle in the myddil of myn hous; he that spekith wickid thingis, seruede not in the siyt of myn iyen.

8 I work every day to silence the wicked in the land, to rid the city of the Lord of all who do evil.

In the morutid Y killide alle the synners of erthe; that Y schulde leese fro the citee of the Lord alle men worchynge wickidnesse.
