Psalm
Psalms, 101
Of David. A melody.
1 About loving-kindness and judgment I will sing. To you, O Jehovah, I will make melody.
2 I will act with discretion in a faultless way. When will you come to me? I shall walk about in the integrity of my heart inside my house.
3 I shall not set in front of my eyes any good-for-nothing thing.*1 The doing of those who fall away I have hated; It does not cling to me.
|
4 A crooked heart departs from me; Nothing bad do I know.
5 Anyone slandering his companion in secrecy, Him I silence. Anyone of haughty eyes and of arrogant heart,*1 Him I cannot endure.
|
6 My eyes are upon the faithful ones of the earth, That they may dwell with me. The one walking in a faultless way, He it is who will minister to me.
7 There will dwell inside my house no worker of trickiness. As for anyone speaking falsehoods, he will not be firmly established In front of my eyes.
8 Every morning*1 I shall silence all the wicked ones of the earth, To cut off from the city of Jehovah all the practicers of what is hurtful.
