- Chapter 101 -

I will set nothing worthless before my eyes

1
Yahweh, I will sing to you! I will sing about your faithful and just loyalty to us.
2
I promise that while I rule people, I will behave in such a way that no one will be able to criticize me. Yahweh, when will you come to help me? I will do things that are right.
3
I will not allow anyone who does what is evil to come to me. I hate the deeds of those who turn away from you; I will completely avoid those people.
4
I will not be dishonest, and I will not have anything to do with evil.
5
I will get rid of anyone who secretly slanders someone else, and I will not let anyone near me who is proud and arrogant.
6
I will approve of people in this land who are loyal to God, and I will allow them to live with me. I will allow to serve me those who behave in such a way that no one can criticize them.
7
I will not allow anyone who deceives others to work in my palace, and no one who tells lies will be allowed to continually come to work for me.
8
Every day I will try to get rid of all the wicked people in this land; I will expel them from this city, which is Yahweh’s city.

I will set nothing worthless before my eyes

1
I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To you, LORD, I will sing praises.
2
I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.
3
I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.
4
A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.
5
I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won’t tolerate one who is arrogant and conceited.
6
My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.
7
He who practices deceit won’t dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood won’t be established before my eyes.
8
Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land, to cut off all the workers of iniquity from the LORD’s city.
