< Psalms 101 >
1 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O YHWH, will I sing.
Psalmus ipsi David. Misericordiam, et iudicium cantabo tibi Domine: Psallam,
2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
et intelligam in via immaculata, quando venies ad me. Perambulabam in innocentia cordis mei, in medio domus meæ.
3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
Non proponebam ante oculos meos rem iniustam: facientes prævaricationes odivi.
4 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
Non adhæsit mihi cor pravum: declinantem a me malignum non cognoscebam.
5 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
Detrahentem secreto proximo suo, hunc persequebar. Superbo oculo, et insatiabili corde, cum hoc non edebam.
6 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
Oculi mei ad fideles terræ ut sedeant mecum: ambulans in via immaculata, hic mihi ministrabat.
7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
Non habitabit in medio domus meæ qui facit superbiam: qui loquitur iniqua, non direxit in conspectu oculorum meorum.
8 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of YHWH.
In matutino interficiebam omnes peccatores terræ: ut disperderem de civitate Domini omnes operantes iniquitatem.
