101  He himene na Rawiri. Ka waiatatia e ahau te mahi tohu me te whakawa tika: ka himene atu ahau ki a koe, e Ihowa.

Ka ata whakahaere ahau i ahau i runga i te ara tika. A hea koe haere mai ai ki ahau? Ka haereere ahau i roto i toku whare i runga i te ngakau tapatahi.

E kore te mea tutua e waiho e ahau i mua i oku kanohi; e kino ana ahau ki te mahi a te hunga peka ke: e kore e piri ki ahau.

Ka mawehe atu i ahau te ngakau parori ke: e kore ahau e mohio ki te mea kino.

Ko te tangata e ngautuara puku ana ki tona hoa ka whakangaromia e ahau: e kore ahau e aro ki te tangata kanohi whakakake, ki te tangata ngakau whakapakari.

Kei runga i nga mea pono o te whenua oku kanohi, kia noho ai ratou ki ahau: ko te tangata e haere ana i te ara tika, ka mahi tena ki ahau.

E kore e noho ki toku whare te kaimahi i te hianga: e kore e tu ki toku aroaro te tangata korero teka.

I tenei ata, i tenei ata, ka whakangaromia e ahau nga tangata kikino katoa o te whenua: kia hatepea atu ai i te pa o te Atua te hunga katoa e mahi ana i te kino.

101 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O Lord, will I sing.

I 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.

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.

Mine 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.

He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the Lord.

I Will Walk with Integrity

A Psalm of David.

101 I will sing of (A)steadfast love and justice;
    to you, O Lord, I will make music.
I will (B)ponder the way (C)that is blameless.
    Oh when will you (D)come to me?
I will (E)walk with (F)integrity of heart
    within my house;
I will not set before my eyes
    anything (G)that is worthless.
I hate the work of those who (H)fall away;
    it shall not cling to me.
(I)A perverse heart shall be far from me;
    I will (J)know nothing of evil.

Whoever slanders his neighbor (K)secretly
    I will (L)destroy.
Whoever has a (M)haughty look and an (N)arrogant heart
    I will not endure.

I will look with favor on the faithful in the land,
    that they may dwell with me;
he who walks in (O)the way that is blameless
    shall minister to me.

No one who (P)practices deceit
    shall dwell in my house;
no one who utters lies
    shall (Q)continue before my eyes.

(R)Morning by morning I will destroy
    all the wicked in the land,
(S)cutting off all (T)the evildoers
    from (U)the city of the Lord.
