Promised Faithfulness to the Lord

A Psalm of David.

1 I will sing of mercy and justice;
To You, O Lord, I will sing praises.
2 I will behave wisely in a1 perfect way.
Oh, when will You come to me?
I will awalk within my house with a perfect heart. 
3 I will set nothing1 wicked before my eyes;
aI hate the work of those bwho fall away;
It shall not cling to me. 
4 A perverse heart shall depart from me;
I will not aknow wickedness. 
5 Whoever secretly slanders his neighbor,
Him I will destroy;
aThe one who has a haughty look and a proud heart,
Him I will not endure. 
6 My eyes shall be on the faithful of the land,
That they may dwell with me;
He who walks in a1 perfect way,
He shall serve me. 
7 He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house;
He who tells lies shall not1 continue in my presence. 
8 aEarly I will destroy all the wicked of the land,
That I may cut off all the evildoers bfrom the city of the Lord.
