Ps 101
1
A Psalm of David. I will sing to you, O Lord, of mercy and judgement; I will sing
a psalm,
2
and I will be wise in a blameless way. When will you come to me? I walked in the innocence
of my heart, in the midst of my house.
3
I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful thing; I have hated transgressors.
4
A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, seeing that
as he turns away from me.
5
Him whom privily speaks against his neighbour, him have I driven from me: he who is
proud in look and insatiable in heart, —with him I have not eaten.
6
Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he
who walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me.
7
The proud doer dwelt not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not
in my sight.
8
Early did I slay all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city
of the Lord all that work iniquity.
