A Psalm of David.

1I will sing of lovingkindness and justice:

Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I sing praises.

2I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way:

Oh when wilt thou come unto me?

I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

3I will set no base thing before mine eyes:

I hate the work of them that turn aside;

It shall not cleave unto me.

4A perverse heart shall depart from me:

I will know no evil thing.

5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbor, him will I destroy:

Him that hath a high look and a proud heart will I not suffer.

6Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me:

He that walketh in a perfect way, he shall minister unto me.

7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house:

He that speaketh falsehood shall not be established before mine eyes.

8Morning by morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land;

To cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of Jehovah.
