1898 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

David maketh a vow and profession of godliness.

101:1 ¶ A Psalm of David. Kindness and judgment I sing, To Thee, O Jehovah, I sing praise.

101:2 I act wisely in a perfect way, When dost Thou come in unto me? I walk habitually in the integrity of my heart, In the midst of my house.

101:3 I set not before mine eyes a worthless thing, The work of those turning aside I have hated, It adhereth not to me.

101:4 A perverse heart turneth aside from me, Wickedness I know not.

101:5 Whoso slandereth in secret his neighbour, Him I cut off, The high of eyes and proud of heart, him I endure not.

101:6 Mine eyes are on the faithful of the land, To dwell with me, Whoso is walking in a perfect way, he serveth me.

101:7 He dwelleth not in my house who is working deceit, Whoso is speaking lies Is not established before mine eyes.

101:8 At morning I cut off all the wicked of the land, To cut off from the city of Jehovah All the workers of iniquity!
