5:1 Give ear to my words, O Jehovah, Consider my meditation. 5:2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; For unto thee do I pray. 5:3 O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; In the morning will I order `my prayer' unto thee, and will keep watch. 5:4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: Evil shall not sojourn with thee. 5:5 The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight: Thou hatest all workers of iniquity. 5:6 Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man. 5:7 But as for me, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house: In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple. 5:8 Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; Make thy way straight before my face. 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. 5:10 Hold them guilty, O God; Let them fall by their own counsels; Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions; For they have rebelled against thee. 5:11 But let all those that take refuge in thee rejoice, Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: Let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. 5:12 For thou wilt bless the righteous; O Jehovah, thou wilt compass him with favor as with a shield.
