[1] Oh, let me sing about faithful love and justice! I want to sing my praises to you, LORD! [2] I want to study the way of integrity—how long before it gets here? I will walk with a heart of integrity in my own house. [3] I won’t set my eyes on anything worthless. I hate wrongdoing; none of that will stick to me. [4] A corrupt heart will be far from me. I won’t be familiar with evil. [5] I will destroy anyone who secretly tells lies about a neighbor. I can’t stomach anyone who has proud eyes or an arrogant heart. [6] My eyes focus on those who are faithful in the land, to have them close to me. The person who walks without blame will work for me. [7] But the person who acts deceitfully won’t stay in my house. The person who tells lies won’t last for long before me. [8] Every morning I will destroy all those who are wicked in the land in order to eliminate all evildoers from the LORD’s city.
