A Psalm of David, I will sing of loyal love and justice: to Thee, O Lord, I will sing.
I will celebrate with a Maskil psalm the way of integrity. O when wilt Thou come to me? I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.
I will set no wicked thing before my eyes: I hate the work of those who turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
A perverse heart shall depart from me: I will know no evil matter.
Whoever secretly slanders his neighbour, him I will cut off: him that has a high look and a proud heart I will not suffer.
My eyes are upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walks in the way of integrity, he shall serve me.
He that works deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that tells lies shall not remain in my sight.
Morning by morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all the evildoers from the city of the Lord.

4. Be kind to yourself. Speaking badly even about yourself is unethical.
