New International Version (NIV) |
|
1 I will sing of mercy and judgment; unto Thee, O LORD, will I sing.
|
1 I will sing of your love and justice; to you, O LORD, I will sing praise.
|
|
2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt Thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
|
2 I will be careful to lead a blameless life-- when will you come to me? I will walk in my house with blameless heart.
|
|
3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes; I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
|
3 I will set before my eyes no vile thing. The deeds of faithless men I hate; they will not cling to me.
|
|
4 A froward heart shall depart from me; I will not know a wicked person.
|
4 Men of perverse heart shall be far from me; I will have nothing to do with evil.
|
|
5 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbor, him will I cut off; him that hath a haughty look and a proud heart will I not suffer.
|
5 Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, him will I put to silence; whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart, him will I not endure.
|
|
6 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
|
6 My eyes will be on the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me; he whose walk is blameless will minister to me.
|
|
7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house; he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
|
7 No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence.
|
|
8 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.
|
8 Every morning I will put to silence all the wicked in the land; I will cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.
