Psalm 5
To the
chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David.
1.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.
