Psalms

Chapter 101

1 I will sing of loving kindness and justice . To you , LORD , I will sing praises .

2 I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me ? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart .

3 I will set no vile thing before my eyes . I hate the deeds of faithless men . They will not cling to me .

4 A perverse heart will be far from me . I will have nothing to do with evil .

5 I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbour . I won’t tolerate one who is arrogant and conceited.

6 My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me . He who walks in a perfect way , he will serve me .

7 He who practices deceit won’t dwell within my house . He who speaks falsehood won’t be established before my eyes .

8 Morning by morning , I will destroy all the wicked of the land, to cut off all the workers of iniquity from the LORD ’s city .
