Psalm 101 Misericordiam et judicium
1 I will sing of mercy and jus-tice; *
to you, O LORD, will I sing prai-ses.
2 I will strive to follow a blameless course; oh, when will you come to me? *
I will walk with sincerity of heart within my house.
3 I will set no worthless thing before my eyes; *
I hate the doers of evil deeds; they shall not remain with me.
4 A crooked heart shall be far from me; *
I will not know e-vil.
5 Those who in secret slander their neighbors I will des-troy; *
those who have a haughty look and a proud heart I cannot a-bide.
6 My eyes are upon the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me, *
and only those who lead a blameless life shall be my ser-vants.
7 Those who act deceitfully shall not dwell in my house, *
and those who tell lies shall not continue in my sight.
8 I will soon destroy all the wicked in the land, *
that I may root out all evildoers from the city of the LORD.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spir-it: *
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. A-men.
