Psalm 101:5-7

Contemporary English Version

⁵ Anyone who spreads gossip
    will be silenced;
no one who is conceited
    will be my friend.

⁶ I will find trustworthy people
    to serve as my advisors;
only an honest person
    will serve as an official.

⁷ No one who cheats or lies
will have a position
    in my royal court.
