101 I will sing of mercy and justice;To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.
2 I will behave wisely in a perfect way.Oh, when will You come to me?I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3 I will set nothing wicked before my eyes;I hate the work of those who fall away;It shall not cling to me.4 A perverse heart shall depart from me;I will not know wickedness.
5 Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor,Him I will destroy;The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart,Him I will not endure.
6 My eyes shall be on the faithful of the land,That they may dwell with me;He who walks in a perfect way,He shall serve me.7 He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house;He who tells lies shall not continue in my presence.8 Early I will destroy all the wicked of the land,That I may cut off all the evildoers from the city of the Lord.
