Psalms 5
Psalms 5
For the Chief Musician; with the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David.
51Give ear to my words, O Jehovah,
my meditation.
2Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God;
For unto thee do I pray.
3O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice;
In the morning will I order my prayer unto thee, and will keep watch.
4For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness:
shall not sojourn with thee.
5The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight:
Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies:
Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.
7But as for me, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house:
In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
8Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies;
my face.
9For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;
Their inward part is very wickedness;
Their throat is an open sepulchre;
They flatter with their tongue.
10Hold them guilty, O God;
them fall by their own counsels;
them out in the multitude of their transgressions;
For they have rebelled against thee.
11But let all those that take refuge in thee rejoice,
them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them:
them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12For thou wilt bless the righteous;
O Jehovah, thou wilt compass him with favor as with a shield.
51Give ear to my words, O Jehovah,
my meditation.
2Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God;
For unto thee do I pray.
3O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice;
In the morning will I order my prayer unto thee, and will keep watch.
4For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness:

5The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight:
Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies:
