| Chapter 101
|
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 an
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. |
