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]).

われ憐憫と審判とをうたはん ヱホバよ我なんぢを讃うたはん

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.

われ心をさとくして全き道をまもらん なんぢいづれの時われにきたりたまふや 我なほき心をもてわが家のうちをありかん

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).

われわが眼前にいやしき事をおかず われ叛くものの業をにくむ そのわざは我につかじ

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

僻めるこころは我よりはなれん 惡きものを知ることをこのまず

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].

隠にその友をそしるものは我これをほろぼさん 高ぶる眼また驕れる心のものは我これをしのばじ

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).

わが眼は國のうちの忠なる者をみて之をわれとともに住はせん 全き道をあゆむ人はわれに事へん

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.

欺くことをなす者はわが家のうちに住むことをえず 虚偽をいふものはわが目前にたつことを得じ

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.

われ朝な朝なこの國のあしき者をことごとく滅し ヱホバの邑より不義をおこなふ者をことごとく絶除かん
