1A Davidic psalm. I will sing of faithful love and justice; I will sing praise to You, LORD.

1A Psalm of David. I will sing of Your loving devotion and justice; to You, O LORD, I will sing praises.

2I will pay attention to the way of integrity. When will You come to me? I will live with a heart of integrity in my house.

2I will ponder the way that is blameless—when will You come to me? I will walk in my house with integrity of heart.

3I will not set anything worthless before my eyes. I hate the practice of transgression; it will not cling to me.

3I will set no worthless thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me.

4A devious heart will be far from me; I will not be involved with evil.

4A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know nothing of evil.

5I will destroy anyone who secretly slanders his neighbor; I cannot tolerate anyone with haughty eyes or an arrogant heart.

5Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; the one with haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not endure.

6My eyes favor the faithful of the land so that they may sit down with me. The one who follows the way of integrity may serve me.

6My 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.

7No one who acts deceitfully will live in my palace; no one who tells lies will remain in my presence.

7No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who tells lies shall stand in my presence.

8Every morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land, eliminating all evildoers from the LORD's city.

8Every morning I will remove all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.
