God's New Revelations

The Book of Psalms

World English Bible Catholic :: King James Version

- Chapter 101 -

I will set nothing worthless before my eyes

1
I will sing of loving kindness and justice. To you, LORD, I will sing praises.
2
I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.
3
I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.
4
A perverse heart will be far from me. I will have nothing to do with evil.
5
I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won’t tolerate one who is arrogant and conceited.
6
My eyes will be on the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he will serve me.
7
He who practices deceit won’t dwell within my house. He who speaks falsehood won’t be established before my eyes.
8
Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land, to cut off all the workers of iniquity from the LORD’s city.

I will set nothing worthless before my eyes

1
I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O Lord , will I sing.
2
I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3
I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.(a)
4
A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
5
Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
6
Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.(b)
7
He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.(c)
8
I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the Lord .
