Psalmorum 101

1 Psalmus David. Misericordiam, et iudicium cantabo tibi Domine: Psallam,

A PSALM OF DAVID. I sing kindness and judgment, To You, O YHWH, I sing praise.

2 et intelligam in via immaculata, quando venies ad me. Perambulabam in innocentia cordis mei, in medio domus meae.

I act wisely in a perfect way, When do You come to me? I habitually walk in the integrity of my heart, In the midst of my house.

3 Non proponebam ante oculos meos rem iniustam: facientes praevaricationes odivi. Non adhaesit mihi

I do not set a worthless thing before my eyes, I have hated the work of those turning aside, It does not adhere to me.

4 cor pravum: declinantem a me malignum non cognoscebam.

A perverse heart turns aside from me, I do not know wickedness.

5 Detrahentem secreto proximo suo, hunc persequebar. Superbo oculo, et insatiabili corde, cum hoc non edebam.

Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, Him I cut off, The high of eyes and proud of heart, Him I do not endure.

6 Oculi mei ad fideles terrae ut sedeant mecum: ambulans in via immaculata, hic mihi ministrabat.

My eyes are on the faithful of the land, To dwell with me, Whoever is walking in a perfect way, he serves me.

7 Non habitabit in medio domus meae qui facit superbiam: qui loquitur iniqua, non direxit in conspectu oculorum meorum.

He who is working deceit does not dwell in my house, Whoever is speaking lies is not established before my eyes.

8 In matutino interficiebam omnes peccatores terrae: ut disperderem de civitate Domini omnes operantes iniquitatem.

At morning I cut off all the wicked of the land, To cut off from the city of YHWH All the workers of iniquity!
