< Psalmorum 101 >
1 David psalmus misericordiam et iudicium cantabo tibi Domine psallam
I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O YHWH, will I sing.
2 et intellegam in via inmaculata quando venies ad me perambulabam in innocentia cordis mei in medio domus meae
I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3 non proponebam ante oculos meos rem iniustam facientes praevaricationes odivi non adhesit mihi
I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
4 cor pravum declinante a me maligno non cognoscebam
A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
5 detrahentem secreto proximo suo hunc persequebar superbo oculo et insatiabili corde cum hoc non edebam
Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
6 oculi mei ad fideles terrae ut sederent mecum ambulans in via inmaculata hic mihi ministrabat
Mine 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.
7 non habitabat in medio domus meae qui facit superbiam qui loquitur iniqua non direxit in conspectu oculorum meorum
He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
8 in matutino interficiebam omnes peccatores terrae ut disperderem de civitate Domini omnes operantes iniquitatem
I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of YHWH.
