Psalm 101
[A psalm by David.]
A King and His Promises

¹I will sing to you, LORD!

I will celebrate your kindness and your justice.

²Please help me learn to do the right thing,

and I will be honest and fair in my own kingdom.

³I refuse to be corrupt

or to take part in anything crooked,

⁴

and I won't be dishonest or deceitful.

⁵Anyone who spreads gossip will be silenced,

and no one who is conceited will be my friend.

⁶I will find trustworthy people to serve as my advisors,

and only an honest person will serve as an official.

⁷No one who cheats or lies

will have a position in my royal court.

⁸Each morning I will silence any lawbreakers I find

in the countryside or in the city of the LORD.
