Psa05 - HOLY BIBLE

Psalms – Chapter 5

¹For the leader; with wind instruments. A psalm of David.

²Give ear to my words, O LORD;
understand my sighing.

³Attend to the sound of my cry,
my king and my God!
For to you I will pray, LORD;

⁴in the morning you will hear my voice;
in the morning I will plead before you and wait.

⁵You are not a god who delights in evil;
no wicked person finds refuge with you;

⁶the arrogant cannot stand before your eyes.
You hate all who do evil;

⁷you destroy those who speak falsely.
A bloody and fraudulent man
the LORD abhors.

⁸But I, through the abundance of your mercy,
will enter into your house.
I will bow down toward your holy sanctuary
out of fear of you.

⁹LORD, guide me in your justice because of my foes;
make straight your way before me.

¹⁰For there is no sincerity in their mouth;
their heart is corrupt.|
Their throat is an open grave;
on their tongue are subtle lies.

¹¹Declare them guilty, God;
make them fall by their own devices.
Drive them out for their many sins;
for they have rebelled against you.

¹²Then all who trust in you will be glad
and forever shout for joy.
You will protect them and those will rejoice in you
who love your name.

¹³For you, LORD, bless the just one;
you surround him with favor like a shield.
