Psalm 101

A Vow of Integrity

A Davidic psalm.

1 I will sing of faithful love and justice;
I will sing praise to You, Lord.(a)
2 I will pay attention to the way of integrity.
When will You come to me?
I will live with a heart of integrity in my house.(b)
3 I will not set anything worthless before my eyes.
I hate the practice of transgression;
it will not cling to me.(c)
4 A devious heart will be far from me;
I will not be involved with[a] evil.(d)

5 I will destroy anyone
who secretly slanders his neighbor;(e)
I cannot tolerate anyone
with haughty eyes or an arrogant heart.(f)
6 My eyes favor the faithful of the land
so that they may sit down with me.
The one who follows the way of integrity
may serve me.(g)
7 No one who acts deceitfully
will live in my palace;
no one who tells lies
will remain in my presence.[b](h)
8 Every morning I will destroy
all the wicked of the land,
eliminating all evildoers from the Lord's city.(i)
