101

Misericordiam et judicium

1  My song shall be of mercy and judgment; *
unto you, O Lord, will I sing.
2  O let me have understanding *
in the way of godliness.
3  When will you come to me? *
I will walk in my house with integrity of heart.
4  I will set no wicked thing before my eyes; * 
I hate the sins of unfaithfulness; no such thing shall cleave 
to me.
5  A crooked heart shall depart from me; *
I will not know a wicked person.
6  Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, *
him will I destroy.
7  Whoever has a proud look and an arrogant heart, *
I will not suffer him.
8  My eyes shall look with favor upon the faithful in the land, *
that they may dwell with me.
9  Whoever leads a godly life, *
he shall be my servant.
10  No deceitful person shall dwell in my house; *
the one who tells lies shall not tarry in my sight.
11  I shall soon destroy all the ungodly who are in the land, *
that I may root out all evildoers from the city of the Lord.
