Psalm 101
101
A Pledge to Live Righteously
A Psalm of David.
1I will sing of mercy and judgment:
unto thee, O Lord, will I sing.
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 set no wicked thing before mine eyes:
I hate the work of them that turn aside;
it shall not cleave to me.
4A froward heart shall depart from me:
I will not know a wicked person.
5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbor, him will I cut off:
him that hath a high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
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.
7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house:
he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
8I will early destroy all the wicked of the land;
that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the Lord.

Psalm 101
101
I Will Walk with Integrity
A Psalm of David.
1I will sing of #[Ex. 34:7]steadfast love and justice;
to you, O Lord, I will make music.
2I will #[Ps. 4:4] ponder the way #Ps. 119:1; Prov. 11:20; [Matt. 5:48] that is blameless.
Oh when will you #[Ex. 20:24; John 14:23] come to me?
I will #1 Kgs. 9:4 walk with #Ps. 78:72integrity of heart
within my house;
3I will not set before my eyes
anything #Deut. 15:9 that is worthless.
I hate the work of those who #See Ps. 40:4fall away;
it shall not cling to me.
4 #
Prov. 11:20; 17:20 A perverse heart shall be far from me;
I will #[1 Cor. 5:11]know nothing of evil.
5Whoever slanders his neighbor #Ps. 15:3 secretly
I will #ver. 8 destroy.
Whoever has a #Ps. 18:27; 131:1; Prov. 6:17; 21:4; 30:13 haughty look and an #Prov. 16:5arrogant 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 #Ps. 119:1; Prov. 11:20; [Matt. 5:48]the way that is blameless
shall minister to me.
7No one who #Ps. 52:2 practices deceit
shall dwell in my house;
no one who utters lies
shall #Ps. 102:28continue before my eyes.
8 # [Ps. 73:14] Morning by morning I will destroy
all the wicked in the land,
#
Ps. 75:10 cutting off all #Ps. 94:4 the evildoers
from #Ps. 48:1, 8; [Isa. 52:1]the city of the Lord.
