(Psa 5:1) Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation.
(Psa 5:2) Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my king, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.
(Psa 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.
(Psa 5:4) For thou {art} not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
(Psa 5:5) The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
(Psa 5:6) Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
(Psa 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.
(Psa 5:8) Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
(Psa 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.
(Psa 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.
(Psa 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.
(Psa 5:12) For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as {with} a shield.
