Chapter 101 - I will sing

1 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.


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.


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.


4 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.


5 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.


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.


7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.


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).
