Psalm 101

1 A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and justice; To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.

1 I will sing of your love and justice, LORD . I will praise you with songs.

2 I will behave wisely in a perfect way. Oh, when will You come to me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

2 I will be careful to live a blameless life— when will you come to help me? I will lead a life of integrity in my own home.

3 I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; It shall not cling to me.

3 I will refuse to look at anything vile and vulgar. I hate all who deal crookedly; I will have nothing to do with them.

4 A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will not know wickedness.

4 I will reject perverse ideas and stay away from every evil.

5 Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, Him I will destroy; The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart, Him I will not endure.

5 I will not tolerate people who slander their neighbors. I will not endure conceit and pride.

6 My eyes shall be on the faithful of the land, That they may dwell with me; He who walks in a perfect way, He shall serve me.

6 I will search for faithful people to be my companions. Only those who are above reproach will be allowed to serve me.

7 He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house; He who tells lies shall not continue in my presence.

7 I will not allow deceivers to serve in my house, and liars will not stay in my presence.

8 Early I will destroy all the wicked of the land, That I may cut off all the evildoers from the city of the Lord.

8 My daily task will be to ferret out the wicked and free the city of the LORD from their grip.
