Psalms 101

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

“By David, a psalm.” Of kindness and justice will I sing: unto thee, O Lord, will I 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 carefully regard the way of the perfect: oh when will thou come unto me? I will walk in the integrity of my heart in the midst of my house.

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 not set before my eyes a godless thing; to commit a departure [from righteousness] do I hate; 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: evil will I not know.

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.

Whoso slandereth in secret his neighbor, him will I destroy: whoso hath proud eyes and a haughty heart, him will I not suffer.

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 abide with me: he that walketh in the way of the perfect, he it is that shall serve 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 that practiseth deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that speaketh falsehoods shall not succeed 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.

Every morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land, cutting off from the city of the Lord all the wrong-doers.
