Psalmorum 101

1 David psalmus misericordiam et iudicium cantabo tibi Domine psallam

A Psalm of David. I will sing of Your loving devotion and justice; to You, O LORD, I will sing praises.

2 et intellegam in via inmaculata quando venies ad me perambulabam in innocentia cordis mei in medio domus meae

I will ponder the way that is blameless— when will You come to me? I will walk in my house with integrity of heart.

3 non proponebam ante oculos meos rem iniustam facientes praevaricationes odivi non adhesit mihi

I will set no worthless thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me.

4 cor pravum declinante a me maligno non cognoscebam

A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know nothing of evil.

5 detrahentem secreto proximo suo hunc persequebar superbo oculo et insatiabili corde cum hoc non edebam

Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; the one with haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not endure.

6 oculi mei ad fideles terrae ut sederent mecum ambulans in via inmaculata hic mihi ministrabat

My eyes favor the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks in the way of integrity shall minister to me.

7 non habitabat in medio domus meae qui facit superbiam qui loquitur iniqua non direxit in conspectu oculorum meorum

No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who tells lies shall stand in my presence.

8 in matutino interficiebam omnes peccatores terrae ut disperderem de civitate Domini omnes operantes iniquitatem

Every morning I will remove all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.
