| 101:1 | I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing. |
| 101:2 | I 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. |
| 101:3 | I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. |
| 101:4 | A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person. |
| 101:5 | Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer. |
| 101:6 | Mine 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. |
| 101:7 | He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight. |
| 101:8 | I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD. |

By the mid-18th century the wide variation in the various modernized printed texts of the Authorized Version, combined with the notorious accumulation of misprints, had reached the proportion of a scandal, and the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge both sought to produce an updated standard text. First of the two was the Cambridge edition of 1760, the culmination of twenty-years work by Francis Sawyer Parris, who died in May of that year. This 1760 edition was reprinted without change in 1762 and in John Baskerville's fine folio edition of 1763. This was effectively superseded by the 1769 Oxford edition, edited by Benjamin Blayney.
