Chapter 05 - Meditation prayer

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[1] 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.
