JPS Tanakh 1917 1A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and justice; Unto Thee, O LORD, will I sing praises.
2I will give heed unto the way of integrity; Oh when wilt Thou come unto me? I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.
3I will set no base thing before mine eyes; I hate the doing of things crooked; it shall not cleave unto me.
4A perverse heart shall depart from me; I will know no evil thing.
5Whoso slandereth his neighbour in secret, him will I destroy; Whoso is haughty of eye and proud of heart, him will I not suffer.
6Mine eyes are upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; He that walketh in a way of integrity, he shall minister unto me.
7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house; He that speaketh falsehood shall not be established before mine eyes.
8Morning by morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land; To cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the LORD. JPS Tanakh 1917: THE HOLY SCRIPTURES ACCORDING TO THE MASORETIC TEXT. A NEW TRANSLATION. Jewish Publication Society. 1917. Bible Hub |
