< Psalms 101 >
1 to/for David melody kindness and justice to sing to/for you LORD to sing
Of David, a psalm. If kindness and justice I sing, making melody to you, Lord.
2 be prudent in/on/with way: conduct unblemished: blameless how to come (in): come to(wards) me to go: walk in/on/with integrity heart my in/on/with entrails: among house: home my
I would look to the way that is blameless, and make it my own. Within my own house I would walk with an innocent heart.
3 not to set: make to/for before eye my word: thing Belial: worthless to make: do rebellion to hate not to cleave in/on/with me
I would never direct my eyes to a thing that is base. The impulse to stray I abhor it shall not cling to me.
4 heart twisted to turn aside: remove from me bad: evil not to know
Far from me be perverseness of heart, or kinship with evil.
5 (to slander *Q(k)*) in/on/with secrecy neighbor his [obj] him to destroy high eye: seeing and broad: wide heart [obj] him not be able
Who slanders their neighbour in secret, I bring them to silence: haughty looks and proud hearts I will not abide.
6 eye: seeing my in/on/with be faithful land: country/planet to/for to dwell with me me to go: walk in/on/with way: conduct unblemished: blameless he/she/it to minister me
I will favour the true in the land, they shall live in my court. Those who walk in a way that is blameless will be my attendant.
7 not to dwell in/on/with entrails: among house: home my to make: do deceit to speak: speak deception not to establish: establish to/for before eye my
No one will live in my house who practises guile. No one that speaks a lie will abide in my presence.
8 to/for morning to destroy all wicked land: country/planet to/for to cut: eliminate from city LORD all to work evil: wickedness
Morn by morn I will wholly wipe out all the bad in the land, and cut off from the Lord’s own city all workers of evil.
