A Psalm of David. 101 I will sing of lovingkindness and [a]justice, To You, O Lord, I will sing praises. 2 I will [b]give heed to the [c]blameless way. When will You come to me? I will walk within my house in the [d]integrity of my heart. 3 I will set no worthless thing before my eyes; I hate the [e]work of those who fall away; It shall not fasten its grip on me. 4 A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know no evil. 5 Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will [f]destroy; No one who has a haughty look and an arrogant heart will I endure. 6 My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; He who walks in a [g]blameless way is the one who will minister to me. 7 He who practices deceit shall not dwell within my house; He who speaks falsehood shall not [h]maintain his position before me. 8 Every morning I will [i]destroy all the wicked of the land, So as to cut off from the city of the Lord all those who do iniquity.
