A Psalm of David.

101   I will sing of steadfast love and justice;
    to you, O LORD, I will make music.
2   I will ponder the way that is blameless.
    Oh when will you come to me?
  I will walk with integrity of heart
    within my house;
3   I will not set before my eyes
    anything that is worthless.
  I hate the work of those who fall away;
    it shall not cling to me.
4   A perverse heart shall be far from me;
    I will know nothing of evil.
5   Whoever slanders his neighbor secretly
    I will destroy.
  Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heart
    I will not endure.
6   I will look with favor 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.
7   No one who practices deceit
    shall dwell in my house;
  no one who utters lies
    shall continue before my eyes.
8   Morning by morning I will destroy
    all the wicked in the land,
  cutting off all the evildoers
    from the city of the LORD.

— Psalm 101
