Encouragement from Psalms 4-11-24

Psalm 101

New American Standard Bible

The Psalmist’s Profession of Uprightness.

A Psalm of David.

101 I will sing of mercy and [a]justice;

To You, Lord, I will sing praises.

2 I will carefully attend to the [b]blameless way.

When will You come to me?

I will walk within my house in the [c]integrity of my heart.

3 I will set no worthless thing before my eyes;

I hate the [d]work of those who fall away;

It shall not cling to me.

4 A perverse heart shall leave me;

I will know no evil.

5 Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will [e]destroy;

I will not endure one who has a haughty look and an arrogant heart.

6 My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me;

One who walks in a [f]blameless way is one who will serve me.

7 One who practices deceit shall not dwell within my house;

One who speaks lies shall not [g]maintain his position before me.

8 Every morning I will [h]destroy all the wicked of the land,

So as to eliminate from the city of the Lord all those who do injustice.
