- I WILL sing of mercy and loving-kindness and justice; to You, O Lord, will I sing.
- 2
- I will behave myself wisely and give heed to the blameless way--O when will You come to me? I will walk within my house in integrity and with a blameless heart.
- 3
- I will set no base or wicked thing before my eyes. I hate the work of them who turn aside [from the right path]; it shall not grasp hold of me.
- 4
- A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know no evil person or thing.
- 5
- Whoso privily slanders his neighbor, him will I cut off [from me]; he who has a haughty look and a proud and arrogant heart I cannot and I will not tolerate.
- 6
- My eyes shall [look with favor] upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks blamelessly, he shall minister to me.
- 7
- He who works deceit shall not dwell in my house; he who tells lies shall not continue in my presence.

- Morning after morning I will root up all the wicked in the land, that I may eliminate all the evildoers from the city of the Lord.
