Psalms 101

1 A psalm for David himself. Mercy and judgment I will sing to thee, O Lord: I will sing,

De David: Salmo. Misericordia y juicio cantaré; a ti, SEÑOR, diré salmos.

2 And I will understand in the unspotted way, when thou shalt come to me. I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

Entenderé en el camino de la perfección cuando vinieres a mí; en perfección de mi corazón andaré en medio de mi casa.

3 I did not set before my eyes any unjust thing: I hated the workers of iniquities.

No pondré delante de mis ojos cosa injusta; hacer traiciones aborrecí; no se allegarán a mí.

4 The perverse heart did not cleave to me: and the malignant, that turned aside from me, I would not know.

Corazón perverso se apartará de mí; no conoceré al malvado.

5 The man that in private detracted his neighbour, him did I persecute. With him that had a proud eye, and an unsatiable heart, I would not eat.

Al detractor de su prójimo a escondidas, a éste cortaré; al altivo de ojos, y de corazón vanidoso, a éste no puedo sufrir.

6 My eyes were upon the faithful of the earth, to sit with me: the man that walked in the perfect way, he served me.

Mis ojos pondré en los fieles de la tierra, para que asienten conmigo; el que anduviere en el camino de la perfección, éste me servirá.

7 He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.

No habitará en medio de mi casa el que hace engaño; el que habla mentiras no se afirmará delante de mis ojos.

8 In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.

Temprano cortaré a todos los impíos de la tierra; para talar de la ciudad del SEÑOR a todos los que obraren iniquidad.
