Psalm 101 101 Psalms Book 4 Catholic Public Domain Version I Will Set No Worthless Thing before My Eyes 1 CPDV A Psalm of David himself. I will sing mercy and judgment to you, O Lord. I will sing psalms. BSB BSB: A Psalm of David. I will sing of Your loving devotion and justice; to You, O LORD, I will sing praises.
2 CPDV And I will have understanding within the immaculate way, when you will draw near to me. I wandered about 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 CPDV I will not display any unjust thing before my eyes. I have hated those carrying out betrayals. 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 CPDV The perverse heart did not adhere to me. And the malignant, who turned away before me, I would not recognize. BSB BSB: A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know nothing of evil.
5 CPDV The one who secretly detracted his neighbor, this one I pursued. The one with an arrogant eye and an insatiable heart, with that one I would not eat. 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 CPDV My eyes looked toward the faithful of the earth, to sit with me. The one walking in the immaculate way, this one 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 CPDV He who has acted arrogantly will not dwell in the midst of my house. He who has spoken iniquity was not guided with the sight of my eyes. BSB BSB: No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who tells lies shall stand in my presence.
8 CPDV In the morning, I executed all the sinners of the earth, so that I might scatter all the workers of iniquity from the city of 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.
