Psalms 101

Commitment to a Blameless Life

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 a 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 .
