Psalms 101

   |   

A King's Promise[a]

1 My song is about loyalty and justice,
    and I sing it to you, O Lord.
2 My conduct will be faultless.
    When will you come to me?

I will live a pure life in my house
3     and will never tolerate evil.
I hate the actions of those who turn away from God;
    I will have nothing to do with them.
4 I will not be dishonest[b]
    and will have no dealings with evil.[c]
5 I will get rid of anyone
    who whispers evil things about someone else;
I will not tolerate anyone
    who is proud and arrogant.

6 I will approve of those who are faithful to God
    and will let them live in my palace.
Those who are completely honest
    will be allowed to serve me.

7 No liar will live in my palace;
    no hypocrite will remain in my presence.
8 Day after day I will destroy
    the wicked in our land;
I will expel all who are evil
    from the city of the Lord.
