Psalms 5
1For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning her that inherits. Hearken to my words, O Lord,attend to my cry.2Attend to the voice of my supplication, my King, and my God: for to you, O Lord,will I pray.
3In the morning you shall hear my voice: in the morning will I wait upon you, andwill look up.
4For you are not a god that desires iniquity; neither shall the worker of wickednessdwell with you.
5Neither shall the transgressors continue in your sight: you hate, O Lord, all themthat work iniquity.
6You will destroy all that speak falsehood: the Lord abhors the bloody and deceitfulman.
7But I will enter into your house in the multitude of your mercy: I will worshipin your fear toward your holy temple.
8Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness because of mine enemies; make my way plainbefore your face.
9For there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain; their throat is an opensepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit.
10Judge them, O God; let them fail of their counsels: cast them out according tothe abundance of their ungodliness; for they have provoked you, O Lord.
11But let all that trust on you be glad in you: they shall exult for ever, and youshall dwell among them; and all that love your name shall rejoice in you.
12For you, Lord, shall bless the righteous: you have compassed us as with a shieldof favor.
