Psalm 101 - ESV Online - Literal Word

PSALM 101

I Will Walk with Integrity

A Psalm of David.
101:1

I will sing of steadfast love and justice;

to you, O Lord, I will make music. 2

I will ponder the way that is blameless.

Oh when will you come to me?

I will walk with integrity of heart

within my house; 3

I will not set before my eyes

anything that is worthless.

I hate the work of those who fall away;

it shall not cling to me. 4

A perverse heart shall be far from me;

I will know nothing of evil.
5

Whoever slanders his neighbor secretly

I will destroy.

Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heart

I will not endure.
6

I will look with favor on the faithful in the land,

that they may dwell with me;

he who walks in the way that is blameless

shall minister to me.
7

No one who practices deceit

shall dwell in my house;

no one who utters lies

shall continue before my eyes.
8

Morning by morning I will destroy

all the wicked in the land,

cutting off all the evildoers

from the city of the Lord.
