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