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