Psalms 101

A Psalm of David.

1I will singH7891 of mercyH2617 and judgmentH4941: to thee, O LORDH3068, will I singH2167. 2I will behave myself wiselyH7919 in a perfectH8549 wayH1870. O when wilt thou comeH935 to me? I will walkH1980 withinH7130 my houseH1004 with a perfectH8537 heartH3824. 3I will setH7896 no wickedH1100 thingH1697 before my eyesH5869: I hateH8130 the workH6213 of them that turn asideH7750; it shall not cleaveH1692 to me.1 4A perverseH6141 heartH3824 shall departH5493 from me: I will not knowH3045 a wickedH7451 person . 5Whoever secretlyH5643 slanderethH3960 his neighbourH7453, him will I cut offH6789: him that hath an highH1362 lookH5869 and a proudH7342 heartH3824 I will not endureH3201. 6My eyesH5869 shall be upon the faithfulH539 of the landH776, that they may dwellH3427 with me: he that walkethH1980 in a perfectH8549 wayH1870, he shall serveH8334 me.2 7He that workethH6213 deceitH7423 shall not dwellH3427 withinH7130 my houseH1004: he that tellethH1696 liesH8267 shall not tarryH3559 in my sightH5869.3 8I will earlyH1242 destroyH6789 all the wickedH7563 of the landH776; that I may cut offH3772 all who practiseH6466 wickednessH205 from the cityH5892 of the LORDH3068.
