101

Of David. A psalm.
  1I will sing of your love and justice;
   to you, Lord, I will sing praise.
  2I will be careful to lead a blameless life—
   when will you come to me?

  I will conduct the affairs of my house
   with a blameless heart.
  3I will not look with approval
   on anything that is vile.

  I hate what faithless people do;
   I will have no part in it.
  4The perverse of heart shall be far from me;
   I will have nothing to do with what is evil.

  5Whoever slanders their neighbor in secret,
   I will put to silence;
  whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart,
   I will not tolerate.

  6My eyes will be on the faithful in the land,
   that they may dwell with me;
  the one whose walk is blameless
   will minister to me.

  7No one who practices deceit
   will dwell in my house;
  no one who speaks falsely
   will stand in my presence.

  8Every morning I will put to silence
   all the wicked in the land;
  I will cut off every evildoer
   from the city of the Lord.
