Psalms 5

A Prayer for Guidance

To the Chief Musician. With [a]flutes. A Psalm of David.

Give ear to my words, O Lord,
Consider my [b]meditation.

Consider My Meditation

{To the chief Musician. Upon Nehiloth. A Psalm of David.} Give ear to my words, O Jehovah; consider my meditation.

Give heed to the voice of my cry,
My King and my God,
For to You I will pray.

Hearken unto the voice of my crying, my king and my God; for to thee will I pray.

My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord;
In the morning I will direct it to You,
And I will look up.

Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; in the morning will I address myself to thee, and will look up.

For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness,
Nor shall evil [c]dwell with You.

For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness; evil shall not sojourn with thee.

The boastful shall not stand in Your sight;
You hate all workers of iniquity.

Insolent fools shall not stand before thine eyes; thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

You shall destroy those who speak falsehood;
The Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth a man of blood and deceit.

But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy;
In fear of You I will worship toward [d]Your holy temple.

But as for me, in the greatness of thy loving-kindness will I enter thy house; I will bow down toward the temple of thy holiness in thy fear.

Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies;
Make Your way straight before my face.

Lead me, Jehovah, in thy righteousness, because of my foes; make thy way plain before me.

For there is no [e]faithfulness in their mouth;
Their inward part is destruction;
Their throat is an open tomb;
They flatter with their tongue.

For there is no certainty in their mouth; their inward part is perversion, their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

Pronounce them guilty, O God!
Let them fall by their own counsels;
Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions,
For they have rebelled against You.

Bring guilt upon them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels: drive them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against thee.

But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You;
Let them ever shout for joy, because You [f]defend them;
Let those also who love Your name
Be joyful in You.

And all that trust in thee shall rejoice: for ever shall they shout joyously, and thou wilt protect them; and they that love thy name shall exult in thee.

For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous;
With favor You will surround him as with a shield.

For thou, Jehovah, wilt bless the righteous [man]; with favour wilt thou surround him as [with] a shield.
