Psalms 101 — AAB

I Will Set No Worthless Thing before My Eyes

A Psalm of David.

101Verse 1I will sing of Your loving devotion and justice;to You, O LORD, I will sing praises.^{Verse 2}I will ponder the way that is blameless—when will You come to me?I will walk in my housewith integrity of heart.^{Verse 3}I will set no worthless thingbefore my eyes.I hate the work of those who fall away;it shall not cling to me.^{Verse 4}A perverse heart shall depart from me;I will know nothing of evil.^{Verse 5}Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret,I will put to silence;the one with haughty eyes and a proud heart,I will not endure.^{Verse 6}My eyes favor the faithful of the land,that they may dwell with me;he who walks in the way of integrityshall minister to me.^{Verse 7}No one who practices deceitshall dwell in my house;no one who tells liesshall stand in my presence.^{Verse 8}Every morning I will remove all the wicked of the land,that I may cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.
