Psal. 101. Misericordiam & Judicium.
Davidis Psalmus.
1
What Mercy, and what Judgement say,Lord, I will sing to thee:
2
And wisely take the perfect way,when thou shalt come to mee.
3
My selfe will good example give,to walke with upright heart;
And others, as I live, to live,
amidst my house convert.
3
I will not in mine eyes, abidea word of Belial:
I hate their worke, that turne aside,
nor cleave to me it shall:
4
A froward heart, an evill man,from me unknowne depart:
5
Detractors tongue, nor beare I can,proud looke, nor large of heart.
6
The faithfull of the Land mine eyessort out with me to sit;
In perfect way, whose walking lies,
for me is servant fit.
7
Within mine house deceitfull wightthere shall not any dwell;
Nor be establisht in my sight,
whose lips doth leasings tell.
8
The wicked all out of the land,my morning search shall shut,
That from Gods City may my hand
all evill doers cut.
