Psalm 101

1If kindness and justice I sing, to you, . Lord 2I would look to the way that is blameless, and make it my own. Within my own house I would walk with an innocent heart. 3I would never direct my eyes to a thing that is base. The impulse to stray I abhor it shall not cling to me. 4Far from me be perverseness of heart, or kinship with evil. 5Who slanders their neighbour in secret, I bring them to silence: looks and proud hearts I will not abide. 6I will favour the true in the land, they shall live in my court. Those who walk in a way that is blameless will be my attendant. 7No one will live in my house who practises guile. No one that speaks a lie will abide in my presence.
