Previous chapter Index Next chapter

1 ^^ To the head of the choir. On the wind instruments. A Psalm of David. ^^ (5-2) Hear, O LORD, my words, understand my meditation.
2 (5-3) Listen to the voice of my cry, my King and my God! For I pray to Thee.
3 (5-4) O Lord! You hear my voice early, and I will stand before you, and I will wait,
4 (5-5) For thou art a God that do not love iniquity; Thy wickedness abideth in thee;
5 (5-6) The wicked will not abide in Your sight: You hate everyone who does iniquity.
6th (5-7) You will destroy those who speak lies; Bloodthirsty and crafty God is abhorrent.

7th (5-8) But I, in the multitude of your mercy, will come into your house, I will bow to your holy temple in your fear.
8 (5-9) O Lord! Guide me in your righteousness, for my enemies' sake; Stand before me thy way.
9 (5-10) For there is no truth in their mouths: their heart is destruction, their throat is an open sepulcher, their tongue is flattered.
10 (5-11) Judge them, O God, that they fall from their schemes; According to the multitude of their wickedness, reject them, for they rebelled against thee.
eleven (5-12) And all who hope in you will rejoice, they will eternally rejoice, and You will patronize them; And they that love thy name shall glory in you.
12 (5-13) For you bless the righteous, O Lord; Goodwill, like a shield, you crown him.
