1I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.
1大衛的詩。我要歌唱慈愛和公正;耶和華啊!我要向你歌頌。(本節在《馬索拉抄本》包括細字標題)
2I 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.
2我要小心謹慎行正直的路;你甚麼時候才到我這裡來呢?我要在我的家中,以正直的心行事。
3I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
3邪惡的事,我都不擺在眼前;離開正路的人所作的事,我都恨惡,決不容這些沾染我。
4A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
4狡詐的心思,我要遠離;邪惡的事,我不參與。
5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
5暗中誹謗鄰舍的,我必把他滅絕;眼目高傲,心裡驕橫的,我必不容忍他。
6Mine 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.
6我的眼目必看顧國中的誠實人,使他們與我同住;行為正直的,必要侍候我。
7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
7行詭詐的,必不得住在我的家裡;說謊話的,必不能在我眼前堅立。
8I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.
8我每日早晨必滅絕國中所有的惡人,好把所有作孽的人都從耶和華的城裡剪除。
