1
A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and justice; To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.
2
I will behave wisely in a perfect way. Oh, when will You come to me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3
I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; It shall not cling to me.
4
A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will not know wickedness.
5
Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, Him I will destroy; The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart, Him I will not endure.
6
My eyes shall be on the faithful of the land, That they may dwell with me; He who walks in a perfect way, He shall serve me.
