Psalms
Psalm 101:6–8
6My 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.
7No one who practices deceit
shall dwell in my house;
no one who tells lies
shall stand in my presence.
8Every morning I will remove all the wicked of the land,
that I may cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.
