I will not look with approval
    on anything that is vile.(A)

I hate what faithless people do;(B)
    I will have no part in it.
The perverse of heart(C) shall be far from me;
    I will have nothing to do with what is evil.

Whoever slanders their neighbor(D) in secret,
    I will put to silence;
whoever has haughty eyes(E) and a proud heart,
    I will not tolerate.

I will set no (A)worthless thing before my eyes;
I hate the [a]work of those who (B)fall away;
It shall not cling to me.
A (C)perverse heart shall leave me;
I will know no evil.
Whoever secretly (D)slanders his neighbor, him I will [b]destroy;
I will not endure one who has a (E)haughty look and an arrogant heart.

  2. Psalm 101:5 Or silence

I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
