Psalms 101

1 Of David a psalm covenant loyalty and justice I will sing to you O Yahweh I will sing praises.

I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To thee, O Jehovah, I will sing praises.

2 I will give attention - to a way blameless when? will you come to me I will walk about in [the] integrity of heart my in [the] midst of house my.

I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when will thou come to me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

3 Not I will set - to before eyes my a thing of worthlessness [the] doing of swerving deeds I hate not it will cling to me.

I will set no base thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who turn aside. It shall not cleave to me.

4 A heart perverse it will depart from me evil not I will know.

A perverse heart shall depart from me. I will know no evil thing.

5 ([one who] slanders *Q(k)*) In secrecy - neighbor his him I will destroy [the] haughty of eyes and [the] wide of heart him not I will be able.

He who slanders his neighbor secretly, him I will destroy. He who has a high look and a proud heart I will not endure.

6 Eyes my - [will be] on [the] faithful [people] of [the] earth to dwell with me [one who] walks in a way blameless he he will serve me.

My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he shall minister to me.

7 Not he will dwell - in [the] midst of house my [one who] does deceit [one who] speaks lies not he will be established to before eyes my.

He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood shall not be established before my eyes.

8 To the mornings I will destroy all [the] wicked [people] of [the] land to cut off from [the] city of Yahweh all [those who] do wickedness.

Morning by morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land, to cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of Jehovah.
