PSAL. CI. A Psalm of David.
I Mercy will, and judgement sing,Lord, I will sing to thee.With wisdom, in a perfect wayLine 2 shall my behaviour be.O when in kindnesse unto me,wilt thou be pleas'd to come?I with a perfect heart will walkwithin my house, at home.
I will endure no wicked thingLine 3 before mine eyes to be:
descriptionPage 201
I hate their work that turn aside,it shall not cleave to me.A stubborn and a froward heartLine 4 depart quite from me shall:A person giv'n to wickednesseI will not know at all.
I'le cut him off, that slanderethLine 5 his neighbour privily:The haughtie heart I will not bear,nor him that looketh hie.Upon the faithfull of the landLine 6 mine eyes shall be, that theyMay dwell with me: he shall me servethat walks in perfect way.
Who of deceit a worker is,Line 7 in my house shall not dwell:And in my presence shall he notremain, that lies doth tell.Yea, all the wicked of the landLine 8 early destroy will I:All from Gods city to cut off,that work iniquity.
