Good News Translation GNT
New International Version NIV
1 My song is about loyalty and justice, and I sing it to you, O Lord.
1
I will sing of your love and justice; to you, LORD, I will sing praise.
2 My conduct will be faultless. When will you come to me? I will live a pure life in my house
2
I will be careful to lead a blameless life— when will you come to me? I will conduct the affairs of my house with a blameless heart.
3 and will never tolerate evil. I hate the actions of those who turn away from God; I will have nothing to do with them.
3
I will not look with approval on anything that is vile. I hate what faithless people do; I will have no part in it.
4 I will not be dishonest and will have no dealings with evil.
4
The perverse of heart shall be far from me; I will have nothing to do with what is evil.
5 I will get rid of anyone who whispers evil things about someone else; I will not tolerate anyone who is proud and arrogant.
5
Whoever slanders their neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not tolerate.
6 I will approve of those who are faithful to God and will let them live in my palace. Those who are completely honest will be allowed to serve me.
6
My eyes will be on the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me; the one whose walk is blameless will minister to me.
