101 1 I will sing of loyalty and of justice;
to you, O Yahweh, I will sing.
101 2 I will give heed to the way that is blameless.
Oh when will you come to me? I will walk with integrity of heart within my house;
101 3 I will not set before my eyes anything that is base.
I hate the work of those who fall away;
it shall not cleave to me.
101 4 Perverseness of heart shall be far from me;
I will know nothing of evil.
101 5 Him who slanders his neighbour secretly I will destroy.
The man of haughty looks and arrogant heart I will not endure.
101 6 I will look with favour on the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me;
he who walks in the way that is blameless shall minister to me.
101 7 No man who practices deceit shall dwell in my house;
no man who utters lies shall continue in my presence.
101 8 Morning by morning I will destroy all the wicked in the land,
cutting off all the evildoers from the city of Yahweh.
