| 1 | A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing praises. | I will sing of steadfast love and justice; to you, O LORD, I will make music. | Of David. A psalm. I will sing of your love and justice; to you, LORD, I will sing praise. | |
| 2 | I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way: Oh when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart. | 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; | 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. | |
| 3 | I will set no base thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave unto me. | 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. | I will not look with approval on anything that is vile. I hate what faithless people do; I will have no part in it. | |
| 4 | A froward heart shall depart from me: I will know no evil thing. | A perverse heart shall be far from me; I will know nothing of evil. | The perverse of heart shall be far from me; I will have nothing to do with what is evil. | |
| 5 | Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I destroy: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will I not suffer. | Whoever slanders his neighbor secretly I will destroy. Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heart I will not endure. | Whoever slanders their neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not tolerate. | |
| 6 | Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall minister unto me. | 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. | My eyes will be on the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me; the one whose walk is blameless will minister to me. | |
| 7 | He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that speaketh falsehood shall not be established before mine eyes. | No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who utters lies shall continue before my eyes. | No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence. | |
| 8 | Morning by morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land; to cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the LORD. | Morning by morning I will destroy all the wicked in the land, cutting off all the evildoers from the city of the LORD. | Every morning I will put to silence all the wicked in the land; I will cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD. | |
