PSALM 101
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm of David.
1I mercy will and judgment sing,
Lord, I will sing to thee.
2With wisdom in a perfect way
shall my behaviour be.
O when, in kindness unto me,
wilt thou be pleas'd to come?
I with a perfect heart will walk
within my house at home.
3I will endure no wicked thing
before mine eyes to be:
I hate their work that turn aside,
it shall not cleave to me.
4A stubborn and a froward heart
depart quite from me shall;
A person giv'n to wickedness
I will not know at all.
5I'll cut him off that slandereth
his neighbour privily:
The haughty heart I will not bear,
nor him that looketh high.
6Upon the faithful of the land
mine eyes shall be, that they
May dwell with me: he shall me serve
that walks in perfect way.
7Who of deceit a worker is
in my house shall not dwell;
And in my presence shall he not
remain that lies doth tell.
8Yea, all the wicked of the land
early destroy will I;
All from God's city to cut off
that work iniquity.

Psalms 101
101
A Psalm (sacred song about or to God) of David [Beloved].
1I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto youi, O Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], will I sing.
2I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when will youi come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; [it] shall not cleave (split open; cut open; divide) to me.
4A perverse (twisted) [habitually disposed to disobedience and opposition] heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked [person].
5Whoso secretly slanders his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that has an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
6Mine eyes [shall be] upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walks in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
7He that works deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that tells lies shall not tarry in my sight.
8I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate].
