Salmos 101

A King’s Promise#HEBREW TITLE: A psalm by David.

1 My song is about loyalty and justice,

and I sing it to you, O Lord.

2 My conduct will be faultless.

When will you come to me?

I will live a pure life in my house

3 and will never tolerate evil.

I hate the actions of those who turn away from God;

I will have nothing to do with them.

4 I will not be dishonest*101.4: not be dishonest; or stay away from dishonest people.

and will have no dealings with evil.*101.4: evil; or evil people.

5 I will get rid of anyone

who whispers evil things about someone else;

I will not tolerate anyone

who is proud and arrogant.

6 I will approve of those who are faithful to God

and will let them live in my palace.

Those who are completely honest

will be allowed to serve me.

7 No liar will live in my palace;

no hypocrite will remain in my presence.

8 Day after day I will destroy

the wicked in our land;

I will expel all who are evil

from the city of the Lord.
