| Chapter 5
|
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. |
