Psalm 101
Expanded Bible
A Promise to Rule Well
A psalm of David.
101 I will sing of your ·love [loyalty] and ·fairness [justice; judgment];
    Lord, I will ·sing praises [make a psalm] to you.
2 I will ·be careful to live [lead; or study] ·an innocent life [the way that is blameless].
    When will ·you [or it; C the “way that is blameless”] come to me?
I will ·live [go; walk] ·an innocent life [L in the blamelessness of my heart] in my house.
3     I will not ·look at [L set before my eyes] anything ·wicked [vile].
I hate those who ·turn against you [are crooked/transgressors];
    they will not ·be found near [cling to] me.
4 Let those who ·want to do wrong [L have a perverse heart] stay away from me;
    I ·will have nothing to do with [L do not know] evil.
5 If anyone secretly ·says things against [slanders] his neighbor,
    I will ·stop [destroy; silence] him.
I will not allow people
    to ·be proud [L have broad hearts] and ·look down on others [L haughty eyes; 131:1].
6 ·I will look for trustworthy people [L My eyes are on the faithful of the land]
    so ·I can live with them [L they may dwell with me].
Only those who ·live innocent lives [L walk in the way of blamelessness]
    will ·be my servants [L serve me].
7 No one who ·is dishonest [deceives] will live in my house;
    no ·liars [L one who speaks falsehoods] will ·stay around me [L be established before my eyes].
8 Every morning I will ·destroy [silence] all the wicked in the land.
    I will ·rid [cut off] the Lord’s city [C Jerusalem; 46:4] of people who do evil.
Psalm 101
Revised Geneva Translation
101 I will sing mercy and judgment. To You, O LORD, I will sing!
2 I will do wisely in the perfect way, till You come to me. I will walk in the uprightness of my heart in the midst of my house.
3 I will set no wicked thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who fall away. It shall not cling to me.
4 A perverse heart shall depart from me. I will know no evil.
5 He who secretly slanders his neighbor, I will destroy. He who has a proud look and high heart, I cannot allow.
6 My eyes shall be to the faithful of the land, so that they may dwell with me. He who walks in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
7 No deceitful person shall dwell within my house. He who tells lies shall not remain in my sight.
8 Early will I destroy all the wicked of the land, so that I may cut off all the workers of iniquity from the City of the LORD. A prayer of the afflicted, when he shall be in distress and pour forth his meditation before the LORD

Salmos 101
Nueva Versión Internacional (Castilian)
Salmo de David.
101 Quiero cantar al amor y a la justicia:
    quiero, Señor, cantarte salmos.
2 Quiero triunfar en el camino de perfección:
    ¿cuándo me visitarás?
Quiero conducirme en mi propia casa
    con integridad de corazón.
3 No me pondré como meta
    nada en que haya perversidad.
Las acciones de gente desleal las aborrezco;
    no tendrán nada que ver conmigo.
4 Alejaré de mí toda intención perversa;
    no tendrá cabida en mí la maldad.
5 Al que en secreto calumnie a su prójimo,
    lo haré callar para siempre;
al de ojos altivos y corazón soberbio
    no lo soportaré.
6 Pondré mis ojos en los fieles de la tierra,
    para que habiten conmigo;
solo estarán a mi servicio
    los de conducta intachable.
7 Jamás habitará bajo mi techo
    nadie que practique el engaño;
jamás prevalecerá en mi presencia
    nadie que hable con falsedad.
8 Cada mañana reduciré al silencio
    a todos los impíos que hay en la tierra;
extirparé de la ciudad del Señor
    a todos los malhechores.
