Psalm

I Will Walk with Integrity
101 A Psalm of David.

    I will sing of steadfast love and justice;
        to you, O LORD, I will make music. ₂I will ponder the way that is blameless.
        Oh when will you come to me?
    I will walk with integrity of heart
        within my house; ₃I 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. ₄A perverse heart shall be far from me;
        I will know nothing of evil. ₅Whoever slanders his neighbor secretly
        I will destroy.
    Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heart
        I will not endure. ₆I 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. ₇No one who practices deceit
        shall dwell in my house;
    no one who utters lies
        shall continue before my eyes. ₈Morning by morning I will destroy
        all the wicked in the land,
    cutting off all the evildoers
        from the city of the LORD.
