Psalm 101

A Psalm by David.

 ^101:1I will sing of lovingkindness and justice.
      To you, Yahweh, I will sing praises.

 ^101:2I will be careful to live a blameless life.
      When will you come to me?
      I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.

 ^101:3I will set no vile thing before my eyes.
      I hate the deeds of faithless men.
      They will not cling to me.

 ^101:4A perverse heart will be far from me.
      I will have nothing to do with evil.

 ^101:5I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor.
      I won't tolerate one who is haughty and conceited.

 ^101:6My 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.

 ^101:7He who practices deceit won't dwell within my house.
      He who speaks falsehood won't be established before my eyes.

 ^101:8Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land;
      To cut off all the workers of iniquity from Yahweh's city.
