The Psalmist’s Profession of Uprightness.

Psa 101:1

A Psalm of David.

I will sing^H2167 of mercy^H2617 and [fn]justice^H4941;

To You, LORD^H3068, I will sing^H2167 praises^H2167.

Psa 101:2

I will carefully^H7919 attend^H7919 to the [fn]blameless^H8549 way^H1870.

When^H4970 will You come^H935 to me?

I will walk^H1980 within^H7130 my house^H1004 in the [fn]integrity^H8537 of my heart^H3824.

Psa 101:3

I will set^H7896 no^H3808 worthless^H1100 thing^H1697 before^H5048 my eyes^H5869;

I hate^H8130 the [fn]work^H6213 of those^H7846 who^H7846 fall^H7846 away^H7846;

It shall not cling^H1692 to me.

Psa 101:4

A perverse^H6141 heart^H3824 shall leave^H5493 me;

I will know^H3045 no^H3808 evil^H7451.

Psa 101:5

Whoever secretly^H5643 slanders^H3960 his neighbor^H7453, him I will [fn]destroy^H6789;

I will not endure^H3201 one who has a haughty^H1364 look^H5869 and an arrogant^H7342 heart^H3824.

Psa 101:6

My eyes^H5869 shall be upon the faithful^H539 of the land^H776, that they may dwell^H3427 with me;

One who walks^H1980 in a [fn]blameless^H8549 way^H1870 is one^H1931 who will serve^H8334 me.

Psa 101:7

One who practices^H6213 deceit^H7423 shall not dwell^H3427 within^H7130 my house^H1004;

One who speaks^H1696 lies^H8267 shall not [fn]maintain^H3559 his position^H3559 before^H5048 me.

Psa 101:8

Every morning^H1242 I will [fn]destroy^H6789 all^H3605 the wicked^H7563 of the land^H776,

So as to eliminate^H3772 from the city^H5892 of the LORD^H3068 all^H3605 those who do^H6466 injustice^H205.
