Psalm 101, a Psalm of David.
I will sing of mercy and judgment unto thee, O Lord, will I sing.
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.
I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes.
I hate the work of them that turn aside.
It shall not cleave to me.
A froward heart shall depart from me.
I will not know a wicked person.
Whoso privily slandereth his neighbor, him will I cut off.
Him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
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.
He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house.
He that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
I will early destroy all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off all wicked doers
from the city of the Lord.
