Psalms 101

1 [A Psalm by David.] I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To you, YHWH, I will sing praises.

A Psalme of David. I will sing mercie and iudgement: vnto thee, O Lord, will I sing.

2 I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.

I will doe wisely in the perfite way, till thou commest to me: I will walke in the vprightnes of mine heart in the middes of mine house.

3 I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.

I wil set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the worke of them that fall away: it shall not cleaue vnto me.

4 A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.

A froward heart shall depart from me: I will knowe none euill.

5 I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won't tolerate one who is haughty and conceited.

Him that priuily slandereth his neighbour, wil I destroy: him that hath a proude looke and hie heart, I cannot suffer.

6 My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.

Mine eyes shalbe vnto the faithfull of the lande, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfite way, he shall serue me.

7 He who practices deceit won't dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood won't be established before my eyes.

There shall no deceitful person dwell within mine house: he that telleth lyes, shall not remaine in my sight.

8 Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land; to cut off all evildoers from YHWH's city.

Betimes will I destroy all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off all the workers of iniquitie from the Citie of the Lord.
