Psalms 101:5–8 · Berean Standard Bible

5 Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; the one with haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not endure.

6 My eyes favor the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks in the way of integrity shall minister to me.

7 No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who tells lies shall stand in my presence.

8 Every morning I will remove all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.
