1A psalm of David. I will sing about loyalty and justice! To you, O LORD, I will sing praises!

1A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.

2I will walk in the way of integrity. When will you come to me? I will conduct my business with integrity in the midst of my palace.

2I 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.

3I will not even consider doing what is dishonest. I hate doing evil; I will have no part of it.

3I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

4I will have nothing to do with a perverse person; I will not permit evil.

4A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

5I will destroy anyone who slanders his neighbor in secret. I will not tolerate anyone who has a cocky demeanor and an arrogant attitude.

5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

6I will favor the honest people of the land, and allow them to live with me. Those who walk in the way of integrity will attend me.

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 serve me.

7Deceitful people will not live in my palace. Liars will not be welcome in my presence.

7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

8Each morning I will destroy all the wicked people in the land, and remove all evildoers from the city of the LORD.

8I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.
