Psalms 101:3 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Before mine eyes, to wit, to look upon it with deliberation and design, or with desire and delight, as this phrase here and elsewhere implies. If any ungodly or unjust thing shall be suggested to me, whatsoever specious pretences it may be covered with, as reason of state or worldly advantage, I will cast it out of my mind and thoughts, it, horrency; so far will I be from putting it in execution. That turn aside from God, and from his laws. It shall cleave to me, to wit, such work, or the contagion of such examples. I will neither imitate nor endure such works, nor such workers.

Psalms 101:3

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