AB - Psalms - 101

101:1  I will sing to You, O Lord, of mercy and judgment; I will sing a psalm,

101:2  and I will be wise in a blameless way. When will You come to me? I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

101:3  I have not set before my eyes any unlawful thing; I have hated transgressors.

101:4  A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, forasmuch as he turns away from me.

101:5  Him that secretly speaks against his neighbor, him have I driven from me; he that is proud in look and insatiable in heart-with him I have not eaten.

101:6  My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he that walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me.

101:7  He that is proud dwelled not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not in my sight.

101:8  Early did I slay all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city of the Lord all that work iniquity.
