Psalm 101

The Good Ruler

Heading
By David. A psalm.

The Righteousness of the Lord

¹ I will sing about your mercy and justice.
To you, O Lord, I will make music.

The Righteousness of the King

² I will act wisely, following the way that is honest.
When will you come to me?
Within my palace I will conduct myself with integrity. ^[1]

Righteousness in His Court

³ I will not tolerate an evil ^[2] cause in my sight.
I hate unfaithfulness and apostasy. ^[3]
It will not stick to me.
⁴ A perverted heart shall be kept far from me.
I will not acknowledge evil.
⁵ I will silence anyone who slanders his neighbor in secret.
I cannot tolerate anyone who has arrogant eyes and a proud heart.
⁶ My eyes will watch for the faithful in the land,
so that they can be seated with me.
Those who walk in the way of integrity will serve as my ministers.
⁷ Anyone who practices deceit will not sit inside my palace.
Anyone who is a liar will not stand in my sight.
⁸ Every morning I will silence all the wicked in the land,
in order to cut off every evildoer from the city of the Lord.

Footnotes

1. Psalm 101:2 More literally I will walk around in my house with wholeness of heart
2. Psalm 101:3 Or devilish. The Hebrew word is belial, which means without restraint or without worth. In late Hebrew it became a name of Satan.
3. Psalm 101:3 The meaning of the line is uncertain. It seems to read I hate doing of apostasies.
