| 1I will sing about gracious love and justice; LORD, I will sing praise to you. | 1A Psalm of David. I will sing of lovingkindness and justice, To You, O LORD, I will sing praises. |
| 2I will pay attention to living a life of integrity— when will I attain it? I will live with integrity of heart in my house. | 2I will give heed to the blameless way. When will You come to me? I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart. |
| 3I will not even think about doing anything lawless; I hate to do evil deeds; I will have none of it. | 3I will set no worthless thing before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; It shall not fasten its grip on me. |
| 4I will not allow anyone with a perverted mind in my presence; I will not be involved with anything evil. | 4A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know no evil. |
| 5I will destroy the one who secretly slanders a friend. I will not allow the proud and haughty to prevail. | 5Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, him I will destroy; No one who has a haughty look and an arrogant heart will I endure. |
| 6My eyes are looking at the faithful of the land, so they may live with me; The one who lives a life of integrity will serve me. | 6My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; He who walks in a blameless way is the one who will minister to me. |
| 7A deceitful person will not sit in my house; A liar will not remain in my presence. | 7He who practices deceit shall not dwell within my house; He who speaks falsehood shall not maintain his position before me. |
| 8Every morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land, eliminating everyone who practices iniquity from the LORD's city. | 8Every morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land, So as to cut off from the city of the LORD all those who do iniquity. |
