Psalms 101

1 Yahweh, I will sing to you! I will sing about [your] faithfully loving [us] (OR, my being loyal to you and acting justly/fairly [toward people]).

達味的詩歌。

2 [I promise that] while I rule people [MTY], I will behave in such a way that no one will be able to criticize me. Yahweh, (when will you come to [help] me?/I need you to come to [help] me.) [RHQ] I will do things that are right.

我要歌頌仁愛與公正，上主，我還要向您吟詠。

3 I will not allow stay away from those who do what is evil [SYN]. I hate the deeds of those who ([turn away from/sin against]) you; I will (completely avoid those people/not allow those people to come near me).

我要走齊全的路，您何時來我這裏？我要在我的家中，以純潔的心度日。

4 I will not be dishonest, and I will not have anything to do with evil (OR, evil people).

我決不把邪僻的事情放置在我的眼前；我痛恨為非作歹的人，不讓他與我相聯。

5 I will get rid of anyone who secretly slanders someone else, and I will not (tolerate/allow to be near me) anyone who is proud and arrogant [DOU].

敗壞的心，我要達離；邪惡我不認識。

6 I will approve of [IDM] people in this land who (are loyal to/faithfully [obey]) [God], and I will allow them to (live with/work for) me. I will allow those who behave in such a way that no one can criticize them to (serve me/be my officials).

暗中設計毀謗同僚的人，我要消滅他；高視闊步，心高氣傲的人，我不容忍他。

7 I will not allow anyone who deceives others to work in my palace; no one who tells lies will be allowed to continually come to [work for] me.

我眼注視國內忠誠的人，讓他們與我同住，在齊全道路行走的人才可作我的忠僕。7. 詭詐欺騙的人，不得住在我的宮內，說謊不實的人，不得在我眼前存在。

8 Every day I will [try to] get rid of all the wicked people in this land; I will [do that by] expelling them from [this] city, which is Yahweh’s city.

我每日清早要滅絕在國所有罪人，我要由上主的城內剷除所有作惡的人。
