Psalm 101

Misericordiam et judicium

  1. MY song shall be of mercy and judgment; unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.
  2. O let me have understanding in the way of godliness.
  3. When wilt thou come unto me? I will walk in my house with a perfect heart.
  4. I will take no wicked thing in hand; I hate the sins of unfaithfulness; there shall no such cleave unto me.
  5. A froward heart shall depart from me; I will not know a wicked person.
  6. Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I destroy.
  7. Whoso hath also a proud look and high stomach, I will not suffer him.
  8. Mine eyes look upon such as are faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me.
  9. Whoso leadeth a godly life, he shall be my servant.
  10. There shall no deceitful person dwell in my house; he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
  11. I shall soon destroy all the ungodly that are in the land; that I may root out all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.
