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. |
