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. |
