1 A Psalm. Of David. I will make a song of mercy and righteousness; to you, O Lord, will I make melody.
2 I will do wisely in the way of righteousness: O when will you come to me? I will be walking in my house with a true heart.
3 I will not put any evil thing before my eyes; I am against all turning to one side; I will not have it near me.
4 The false heart I will send away from me: I will not have an evil-doer for a friend.
5 I will put to death anyone who says evil of his neighbour secretly; the man with a high look and a heart of pride is disgusting to me.
6 My eyes will be on those of good faith in the land, so that they may be living in my house; he who is walking in the right way will be my servant.
7 The worker of deceit will not come into my house; the false man will have no place before my eyes.
8 Morning by morning will I put to death all the sinners in the land, so that all evil-doers may be cut off from Jerusalem.
1 我要歌唱慈爱和公正; 耶和华啊! 我要向你歌颂。(本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题)
2 我要小心谨慎行正直的路; 你什么时候才到我这里来呢?我要在我的家中, 以正直的心行事。
3 邪恶的事, 我都不摆在眼前; 离开正路的人所作的事, 我都恨恶, 决不容这些沾染我。
4 狡诈的心思, 我要远离; 邪恶的事, 我不参与。
5 暗中诽谤邻舍的, 我必把他灭绝; 眼目高傲, 心里骄横的, 我必不容忍他。
6 我的眼目必看顾国中的诚实人, 使他们与我同住; 行为正直的, 必要侍候我。
7 行诡诈的, 必不得住在我的家里; 说谎话的, 必不能在我眼前坚立。
8 我每日早晨必灭绝国中所有的恶人, 好把所有作孽的人都从耶和华的城里剪除。
