Psalm 101

New Revised Standard NRS

1 I will sing of loyalty and of justice; to you, O Lord, I will sing.

2 I will study the way that is blameless. When shall I attain it? I will walk with integrity of heart within my house;

3 I will not set before my eyes anything that is base. I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me.

4 Perverseness of heart shall be far from me; I will know nothing of evil.

5 One who secretly slanders a neighbor I will destroy. A haughty look and an arrogant heart I will not tolerate.

6 I will look with favor on the faithful in the land, so that they may live with me; whoever walks in the way that is blameless shall minister to me.

7 No one who practices deceit shall remain in my house; no one who utters lies shall continue in my presence.

8 Morning by morning I will destroy all the wicked in the land, cutting off all evildoers from the city of the Lord.

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 <A Psalm. Of David.> I will make a song of mercy and righteousness; to you, O Lord, will I make melody.

2 I will do wisely in the way of righteousness: O when will you come to me? I will be walking in my house with a true heart.

3 I will not put any evil thing before my eyes; I am against all turning to one side; I will not have it near me.

4 The false heart I will send away from me: I will not have an evil-doer for a friend.

5 I will put to death anyone who says evil of his neighbour secretly; the man with a high look and a heart of pride is disgusting to me.

6 My eyes will be on those of good faith in the land, so that they may be living in my house; he who is walking in the right way will be my servant.

7 The worker of deceit will not come into my house; the false man will have no place before my eyes.

8 Morning by morning will I put to death all the sinners in the land, so that all evil-doers may be cut off from Jerusalem.
