Psalms 101 — FBV

A psalm of David.

101Verse 1I will sing of your faithful love and good judgment. I will sing praises to you, Lord.
^{Verse 2}I will make sure my life is blameless. When will you come and help me? My life will be one of integrity even in private.^{+
Verse 3}I will not look at anything evil. I hate doing wrong—I won't have anything to do with it.
^{Verse 4}I won't think bad thoughts—I won't even consider anything evil.
^{Verse 5}I will silence anyone who secretly slanders their neighbor. I won't tolerate anyone who is proud and arrogant.
^{Verse 6}I look for faithful people to live with me; only those who are trustworthy will serve me.
^{Verse 7}No one who is dishonest will live in my house; no liars will be allowed in my presence.
^{Verse 8}I work every day to silence the wicked in the land, to rid the city of the Lord of all who do evil.
