| 101:2 | I will behave wisely in a perfect way. Oh, when will You come to me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart. |
| 101:3 | I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; It shall not cling to me. |
| 101:4 | A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will not know wickedness. |
| 101:5 | Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor, Him I will destroy; The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart, Him I will not endure. |
| 101:6 | My eyes shall be on the faithful of the land, That they may dwell with me; He who walks in a perfect way, He shall serve me. |
| 101:7 | He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house; He who tells lies shall not continue in my presence. |
| 101:8 | Early I will destroy all the wicked of the land, That I may cut off all the evildoers from the city of the LORD. |
