All ye that evil-doers are from me depart away; For the commandments of my God I purpose to obey.
Hence from me, wicked workers all; For God hath heard my weeping cries.
Thou, Lord, wilt sure the wicked slay: hence from me bloody men.
I sworn have, and I will perform, to keep thy judgments right.
Th' assembly of ill men I hate; to sit with such I shun.
With sinners gather not my soul, and such as blood would spill:
Blessed are they who to observe his statutes are inclin'd; And who do seek the living God with their whole heart and mind.
