Psalm 101 101 Psalms Book 4 Brenton Septuagint I Will Set No Worthless Thing before My Eyes 1 Brenton A Psalm of David. I will sing to thee, O Lord, of mercy and judgment; I will sing a psalm, BSB BSB: A Psalm of David. I will sing of Your loving devotion and justice; to You, O LORD, I will sing praises.
2 Brenton and I will be wise in a blameless way. When wilt thou come to me? I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house. BSB BSB: I will ponder the way that is blameless—when will You come to me? I will walk in my house with integrity of heart.
3 Brenton I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful thing; I have hated transgressors. BSB BSB: I will set no worthless thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me.
4 Brenton A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, forasmuch as he turns away from me. BSB BSB: A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know nothing of evil.
5 Brenton Him that privily speaks against his neighbour, him have I driven from me : he that is proud in look and insatiable in heart,—with him I have not eaten. BSB BSB: Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; the one with haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not endure.
6 Brenton Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me. BSB BSB: My eyes favor the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks in the way of integrity shall minister to me.
7 Brenton The proud doer dwelt not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not in my sight. BSB BSB: No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who tells lies shall stand in my presence.
8 Brenton Early did I slay all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city of the Lord all that work iniquity. A Prayer for the Poor; when he is deeply afflicted, and pours out his supplication before the Lord. BSB BSB: Every morning I will remove all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.
