psalms 5
1 - Give ear to my words, The LORD.Consider my meditation.
2 - Listen to the voice of my cry, my King and my God;for to you do I pray.
3 - The LORD, in the morning you shall hear my voice.In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.
4 - For you are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness.Evil can't live with you.
5 - The arrogant shall not stand in your sight.You hate all workers of iniquity.
6 - You will destroy those who speak lies.The LORD abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
7 - But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will come into your house.I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.
But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will come into your house.I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.
8 - Lead me, The LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies.Make your way straight before my face.
9 - For there is no faithfulness in their mouth.Their heart is destruction.Their throat is an open tomb.They flatter with their tongue.
10 - Hold them guilty, God.Let them fall by their own counsels;Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions,for they have rebelled against you.
11 - But let all those who take refuge in you rejoice,Let them always shout for joy, because you defend them.Let them also who love your name be joyful in you.
12 - For you will bless the righteous.The LORD, you will surround him with favor as with a shield.
