第 101 篇
君王的诺言
大卫的诗。
1耶和华啊,
我要歌颂你的慈爱和公正,
我要歌颂你。
2我要谨慎行事,
走正直的路,
你何时来我这里?
我要在家中以正直的心行事。
3我要弃绝恶事,
我憎恶背弃上帝者的行为,
不沾染他们的恶行。
4我要远离心思悖逆的人,
不与邪恶的事有任何瓜葛。
5我要消灭暗中毁谤邻居的人,
也不容忍心高气傲的人。
6我要看顾国中忠于上帝的人,
让他们与我同住。
行事正直的人才能服侍我。
7诡诈的人必不得与我同住,
口出谎言的人必不得侍立在我面前。
8每天早晨我要消灭国中所有的恶人,
从耶和华的城中铲除一切作恶的人。
A Psalm of David.
1I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.
2I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.101.3 wicked…: Heb. thing of Belial
4A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
6Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.101.6 in a…: or, perfect in the way
7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.101.7 shall not tarry: Heb. shall not be established
8I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.
