Psalm 101
New International Version
Psalm 101
Of David. A psalm.
1 I will sing of your love(A) and justice;
to you, Lord, I will sing praise.
2 I will be careful to lead a blameless life(B)—
when will you come to me?
I will conduct the affairs(C) of my house
with a blameless heart.
3 I will not look with approval
on anything that is vile.(D)
I hate what faithless people do;(E)
I will have no part in it.
4 The perverse of heart(F) shall be far from me;
I will have nothing to do with what is evil.
5 Whoever slanders their neighbor(G) in secret,
I will put to silence;
whoever has haughty eyes(H) and a proud heart,
I will not tolerate.
6 My eyes will be on the faithful in the land,
that they may dwell with me;
the one whose walk is blameless(I)
will minister to me.
7 No one who practices deceit
will dwell in my house;
no one who speaks falsely
will stand in my presence.
Psalm 109:1-4
New International Version
Psalm 109
For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.
1 My God, whom I praise,(A)
do not remain silent,(B)
2 for people who are wicked and deceitful(C)
have opened their mouths against me;
they have spoken against me with lying tongues.(D)
3 With words of hatred(E) they surround me;
they attack me without cause.(F)
4 In return for my friendship they accuse me,
but I am a man of prayer.(G)
Psalm 109:20-30
New International Version
21 But you, Sovereign Lord,
help me for your name’s sake;(C)
out of the goodness of your love,(D) deliver me.(E)
22 For I am poor and needy,
and my heart is wounded within me.
23 I fade away like an evening shadow;(F)
I am shaken off like a locust.
24 My knees give(G) way from fasting;(H)
my body is thin and gaunt.(I)
25 I am an object of scorn(J) to my accusers;
when they see me, they shake their heads.(K)
26 Help me,(L) Lord my God;
save me according to your unfailing love.
27 Let them know(M) that it is your hand,
that you, Lord, have done it.
28 While they curse,(N) may you bless;
may those who attack me be put to shame,
but may your servant rejoice.(O)
29 May my accusers be clothed with disgrace
and wrapped in shame(P) as in a cloak.
30 With my mouth I will greatly extol the Lord;
in the great throng(Q) of worshipers I will praise him.
