Psalm 101:7-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 No one who practices deceit
can remain within my house.
No one who speaks falsely
can last in my presence.(A)
8 [a]Morning after morning I clear all the wicked from the land,
to rid the city of the Lord of all doers of evil.
Footnotes
- 101:8 Morning after morning: the morning is the normal time for the administration of justice (2 Sm 15:2; Jer 21:12) and for the arrival of divine aid (Ps 59:17; 143:8; Is 33:2). I clear all the wicked from the land: the king, as God’s servant, is responsible for seeing that divine justice is carried out.
