Psalms 101:1-8 Modern English Version (MEV)

1. I will sing of mercy and justice;to You, O Lord, I will sing.

2. I will consider the path that is blameless.When will You come to me? I will walk within my housewith a perfect heart.

3. I will set no wicked thingbefore my eyes. I hate the work of those who turn aside;it shall not have part of me.

4. A perverted heart shall be far from me;I will not know anything wicked.

5. Whoever privately slanders his neighbor,him I will destroy;whoever has a haughty look and a proud heartI will not endure.

6. My eyes shall be favorable to the faithful in the land,that they may live with me;he who walks in a blameless manner,he shall serve me.

7. He who practices deceitshall not dwell within my house;he who tells liesshall not remain in my sight.

8. Every morning I will destroyall the wicked in the land,that I may cut off all wicked doersfrom the city of the Lord.
