Psalm 101:1–4

I will sing of your love and justice;

to you, Lord, I will sing praise.

I will be careful to lead a blameless life—

when will you come to me?

I will conduct the affairs of my house

with a blameless heart.

I will not look with approval

on anything that is vile.

I hate what faithless people do;

I will have no part in it.

The perverse of heart shall be far from me;

I will have nothing to do with what is evil.

I will sing of faithful love and justice;

I will sing praise to you, Lord.

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.

I will not let anything worthless guide me.

I hate the practice of transgression;

it will not cling to me.

A devious heart will be far from me;

I will not be involved with evil.

I will sing of your love and justice, Lord.

I will praise you with songs.

I will be careful to live a blameless life—

when will you come to help me?

I will lead a life of integrity

in my own home.

I will refuse to look at

anything vile and vulgar.

I hate all who deal crookedly;

I will have nothing to do with them.

I will reject perverse ideas

and stay away from every evil.

I will sing of loyal love and justice;

I will sing praises to you, O Yahweh.

I will give attention to the way of integrity.

When will you come to me?

I will walk in the integrity of my heart

in the midst of my house.

I will not set before my eyes

any wicked thing.

I hate the work of those who fall away;

it will not cling to me.

A perverse heart will depart from me;

I will not know evil.

I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O Lord, will I sing.

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.

I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes:

I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
