John 101

1I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O Lord, will I sing.

2I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

3I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

4A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

6Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

8I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the Lord.

Commentary library

Matthew Henry · Concise on 101

Reading note: Commentary is an author’s interpretation and is not Scripture. The KJV remains this project’s primary Bible text even when another historical translation is selected above.

Text source

Public-domain Bible texts, clearly identified

The reader defaults to the 1769 King James Version. The public-domain Wycliffe edition contains the Pentateuch and four Gospels in Middle English. William Tyndale’s never-completed translation includes his New Testament, Pentateuch, and Jonah; missing books are not silently supplied from another version. The Geneva, Webster, Darby, Young’s Literal, and American Standard versions are complete public-domain editions distributed by CrossWire. Strong’s tools remain attached only to the KJV source text.
