| Chapter 101 |
1 | I will sing of lovingkindness and justice. To you, Yahweh, I will sing praises.
|
2 | I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.
|
3 | I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.
|
4 | A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.
|
5 | I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won't tolerate one who is haughty and conceited.
|
6 | My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, That they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, He will serve me.
|
7 | He who practices deceit won't dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood won't be established before my eyes.
|
8 | Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land; To cut off all the workers of iniquity from Yahweh's city. Psalm 102 A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before Yahweh.
