Psalmorum 101

1 Psalmus ipsi David. Misericordiam, et iudicium cantabo tibi Domine: Psallam,

A Psalme of David. I will sing mercie and iudgement: vnto thee, O Lord, will I sing.

2 et intelligam in via immaculata, quando venies ad me. Perambulabam in innocentia cordis mei, in medio domus meæ.

I will doe wisely in the perfite way, till thou commest to me: I will walke in the vprightnes of mine heart in the middes of mine house.

3 Non proponebam ante oculos meos rem iniustam: facientes prævaricationes odivi. Non adhæsit mihi

I wil set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the worke of them that fall away: it shall not cleaue vnto me.

4 cor pravum: declinantem a me malignum non cognoscebam.

A froward heart shall depart from me: I will knowe none euill.

5 Detrahentem secreto proximo suo, hunc persequebar. Superbo oculo, et insatiabili corde, cum hoc non edebam.

Him that priuily slandereth his neighbour, wil I destroy: him that hath a proude looke and hie heart, I cannot suffer.

6 Oculi mei ad fideles terræ ut sedeant mecum: ambulans in via immaculata, hic mihi ministrabat.

Mine eyes shalbe vnto the faithfull of the lande, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfite way, he shall serue me.

7 Non habitabit in medio domus meæ qui facit superbiam: qui loquitur iniqua, non direxit in conspectu oculorum meorum.

There shall no deceitful person dwell within mine house: he that telleth lyes, shall not remaine in my sight.

8 In matutino interficiebam omnes peccatores terræ: ut disperderem de civitate Domini omnes operantes iniquitatem.

Betimes will I destroy all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off all the workers of iniquitie from the Citie of the Lord.
