Falsehood I have hated, yea I abominate `it', Thy law I have loved.
He dwelleth not in my house who is working deceit, Whoso is speaking lies Is not established before mine eyes.
From Thy precepts I have understanding, Therefore I have hated every false path!
`Samech.' Doubting ones I have hated, And Thy law I have loved.
Therefore all my appointments I have declared wholly right, Every path of falsehood I have hated!
The way of falsehood turn aside from me And with Thy law favour me.
And I delight myself in Thy commands, That I have loved,
A false word the righteous hateth, And the wicked causeth abhorrence, and is confounded.
Vanity and a lying word put far from me, Poverty or wealth give not to me, Cause me to eat the bread of my portion,
Hate evil, and love good, And set up judgment in the gate, It may be Jehovah, God of Hosts, doth pity the remnant of Joseph.
The love unfeigned: abhorring the evil; cleaving to the good;
Wherefore, putting away the lying, speak truth each with his neighbour, because we are members one of another;
and without `are' the dogs, and the sorcerers, and the whoremongers, and the murderers, and the idolaters, and every one who is loving and is doing a lie.
