The Whole Booke of Psalmes ‎#56c

56c. Misericordiam

1 I mercy will and judgment sing,
O Lord God unto thee
2 And wisely do in a perfect way,
untill thou come to me.
And in the midst of my house walk,
in purenesse of my sprite:
3 And I no kind of wicked thing
will see before my sight.

4 I hate their work that fall away,
it shall not cleave to me.
From me shall part the froward heart
none evill will I see.
5 Him will I stroy that slandereth
his neighbour privily:
The lofty heart I cannot beare,
nor him that looketh hie.

6 Mine eyes shall be on them within
the land that faithfull be:
In perfect way they who walketh shall
be servant unto me.
7 I will now guilefull person have,
within my house to dwell:
And in my presence shall he not
remaine that lies doth tell.

8 Betimes I will destroy even all
the wicked of the land:
That I may from Gods City cut
the wicked workers hand.
