Psalms 101

1 A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and judgment: to thee, O LORD, will I sing.

τῷ Δαυιδ ψαλμός ἔλεος καὶ κρίσιν ᾄσομαί σοι κύριε

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

ψαλῶ καὶ συνήσω ἐν ὁδῷ ἀμώμῳ πότε ἥξεις πρός με διεπορευόμην ἐν ἀκακίᾳ καρδίας μου ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ οἴκου μου

3 I will set no wicked thing before my eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

οὐ προεθέμην πρὸ ὀφθαλμῶν μου πρᾶγμα παράνομον ποιοῦντας παραβάσεις ἐμίσησα

4 A perverse heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

οὐκ ἐκολλήθη μοι καρδία σκαμβή ἐκκλίνοντος ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ τοῦ πονηροῦ οὐκ ἐγίνωσκον

5 Whoever secretly slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart I will not endure.

τὸν καταλαλοῦντα λάθρᾳ τοῦ πλησίον αὐτοῦ τοῦτον ἐξεδίωκον ὑπερηφάνῳ ὀφθαλμῷ καὶ ἀπλήστῳ καρδίᾳ τούτῳ οὐ συνήσθιον

6 My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου ἐπὶ τοὺς πιστοὺς τῆς γῆς τοῦ συγκαθῆσθαι αὐτοὺς μετ’ ἐμοῦ πορευόμενος ἐν ὁδῷ ἀμώμῳ οὗτός μοι ἐλειτούργει

7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

οὐ κατῴκει ἐν μέσῳ τῆς οἰκίας μου ποιῶν ὑπερηφανίαν λαλῶν ἄδικα οὐ κατεύθυνεν ἐναντίον τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν μου

8 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all who practise wickedness from the city of the LORD.

εἰς τὰς πρωίας ἀπέκτεννον πάντας τοὺς ἁμαρτωλοὺς τῆς γῆς τοῦ ἐξολεθρεῦσαι ἐκ πόλεως κυρίου πάντας τοὺς ἐργαζομένους τὴν ἀνομίαν
