<- PSALM 2001 ->

Norm of Life for Rulers

A psalm of David.

1 I sing of love and justice;
to you, LORD, I sing praise.

2 I follow the way of integrity;
when will you come to me?
I act with integrity of heart within my royal court.

3 I do not allow into my presence anyone who speaks perversely.
Whoever acts shamefully I hate;
no such person can be my friend.

4 I shun the devious of heart;
the wicked I do not tolerate.

5 Whoever slanders another in secret I reduce to silence.
Haughty eyes and arrogant hearts I cannot endure.

6 I look to the faithful of the land;
they alone can be my companions.

Those who follow the way of integrity,
they alone can enter my service.

7 No one who practices deceit can hold a post in my court.
No one who speaks falsely can be among my advisors.

8 Each morning I clear the wicked from the land,

and rid the LORD'S city of all evildoers.
