Psalms 101

Psalm 101
David wrote this psalm.
The king's song #101:1 David promises to serve God and to rule his people well.
1I will sing and praise you, Lord!
I will sing about your faithful love and your justice. #101:1 ‘Faithful love’ is the love that God has for his own people.
2I will be careful to live in a completely good way.
When will you come to help me, Lord?
In my own home,
I will always be completely honest.
3As for evil things,
I will not even think about them.
I hate the things that wicked people do.
They will not be my friends.
4I will keep away from people with wrong thoughts.
I will not mix with them.
5If anyone secretly speaks against his friend,
I will destroy them.
If anyone is proud and they boast about themselves,
I will send them away from me.
6Instead, I will work with people
that I can trust.
I will let them live with me and be my guides.
My servants will be people
who live in an honest way.
7People who deceive others or who tell lies
will not have a place in my home.
8Every morning I will remove
any wicked person who lives in our land. #101:8 Every morning probably means the time when David judged people. He decided whether they deserved punishment.
Nobody who does evil things
will remain in the city of the Lord.
