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.

Psalms 101
101
A Promise to Act with Integrity
Of David. A psalm.#The Hebrew Bible counts the superscription as the first verse of the psalm
1I will sing of loyal love and justice;
I will sing praises to you, O Yahweh.
2I will give attention to the way of integrity.
When will you come to me?
I will walk in the integrity of my heart
in the midst of my house.
3I will not set before my eyes
any wicked thing.
I hate the work of those who fall away;#The term “those who fall away” is a rare noun. The verb from the same root is found in Psa 40:5(4)
it will not cling to me.
4A perverse heart will depart from me;
I will not know evil.
5One who slanders his neighbor in secret,
him I will destroy.
One haughty of eyes and arrogant#Literally “wide” of heart,
him I will not endure.
6My eyes will be on the faithful of the land,
that they may live with me.
He who walks in the way of integrity,
he shall minister to me.
7There will not live in the midst of my house
a worker of deceit.
One who speaks lies
will not remain#Hebrew “be established” before my eyes.
8Each morning,#Literally “to the mornings”
I will destroy all the wicked of the land,
cutting off from the city of Yahweh all evildoers.
