君王的诺言

大卫的诗。

101 耶和华啊,
我要歌颂你的慈爱和公正,
我要歌颂你。
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。
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。
我要远离心思悖逆的人,
不与邪恶的事有任何瓜葛。
我要消灭暗中毁谤邻居的人,
也不容忍心高气傲的人。
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。
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。
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。

101 Salmo de David. MISERICORDIA y juicio cantaré: A ti cantaré yo, oh Jehová.

Entenderé en el camino de la perfección Cuando vinieres á mí: En integridad de mi corazón andaré en medio de mi casa.

No pondré delante de mis ojos cosa injusta: Aborrezco la obra de los que se desvían: Ninguno de ellos se allegará á mí.

Corazón perverso se apartará de mí; No conoceré al malvado.

Al que solapadamente infama á su prójimo, yo le cortaré; No sufriré al de ojos altaneros, y de corazón vanidoso.

Mis ojos pondré en los fieles de la tierra, para que estén conmigo: El que anduviere en el camino de la perfección, éste me sevirá.

No habitará dentro de mi casa el que hace fraude: El que habla mentiras no se afirmará delante de mis ojos.

Por las mañanas cortaré á todos los impíos de la tierra; Para extirpar de la ciudad de Jehová á todos los que obraren iniquidad.

Psalm 101

Of David. A psalm.

I will sing of your love(A) and justice;
    to you, Lord, I will sing praise.
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.
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.
The perverse of heart(F) shall be far from me;
    I will have nothing to do with what is evil.

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.

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.

No one who practices deceit
    will dwell in my house;
no one who speaks falsely
    will stand in my presence.

Every morning(J) I will put to silence
    all the wicked(K) in the land;
I will cut off every evildoer(L)
    from the city of the Lord.(M)

Promised Faithfulness to the Lord

A Psalm of David.

101 I will sing of mercy and justice;
To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.

I will behave wisely in a [a]perfect way.
Oh, when will You come to me?
I will (A)walk within my house with a perfect heart.

I will set nothing [b]wicked before my eyes;
(B)I hate the work of those (C)who fall away;
It shall not cling to me.
A perverse heart shall depart from me;
I will not (D)know wickedness.

Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor,
Him I will destroy;
(E)The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart,
Him I will not endure.

My eyes shall be on the faithful of the land,
That they may dwell with me;
He who walks in a [c]perfect way,
He shall serve me.
He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house;
He who tells lies shall not [d]continue in my presence.
(F)Early I will destroy all the wicked of the land,
That I may cut off all the evildoers (G)from the city of the Lord.
