Psalms 101

NCV

NIV

1 I will sing of your love and fairness; Lord, I will sing praises to you.
1 I will sing of your love and justice; to you, LORD, I will sing praise.
2 I will be careful to live an innocent life. When will you come to me? I will live an innocent 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 I will not look at anything wicked. I hate those who turn against you; they will not be found near me.
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 Let those who want to do wrong stay away from me; I will have nothing to do with evil.
4 The perverse of heart shall be far from me; I will have nothing to do with what is evil.
5 If anyone secretly says things against his neighbor, I will stop him. I will not allow people to be proud and look down on others.
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 look for trustworthy people so I can live with them in the land. Only those who live innocent lives will be my servants.
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.
7 No one who is dishonest will live in my house; no liars will stay around me.
7 No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence.
8 Every morning I will destroy the wicked in the land. I will rid the Lord's city of people who do evil. A prayer of a person who is suffering when he is discouraged and tells the Lord his complaints.
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.
