PS-5:1 To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David.

Give ear to my

words, O LORD, consider my meditation.

PS-5:2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God:

for unto thee

will I pray.

PS-5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the

morning will I

direct [my prayer] unto thee, and will look up.

PS-5:4 For thou [art] not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness:

 neither

shall evil dwell with thee.

PS-5:5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all

workers of

iniquity.

PS-5:6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will

abhor the

bloody and deceitful man.

PS-5:7 But as for me, I will come [into] thy house in the

multitude of thy

mercy: [and] in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

PS-5:8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine

enemies; make thy

way straight before my face.

PS-5:9 For [there is] no faithfulness in their mouth; their

inward part [is]

very wickedness; their throat [is] an open sepulchre; they

flatter with their

tongue.

PS-5:10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own

counsels; cast

them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have

rebelled

against thee.

PS-5:11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice:

let them ever

shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that

love thy name

be joyful in thee.

PS-5:12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour

wilt thou

compass him as [with] a shield.
