5:1  To the Overcomer upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD; consider my meditation.
5:2  Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God, for unto thee will I pray.
5:3  My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; early will I present myself unto thee and wait.
5:4  For thou art not a God that loves wickedness; neither shall one who is evil dwell with thee.
5:5  The foolish (those who are governed by carnal thoughts or desires) shall not stand in thy sight; thou dost hate all workers of iniquity.
5:6  Thou shalt destroy those that speak lies: the LORD will abominate the bloody and deceitful man.
5:7  But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear I will worship toward thy holy temple.
5:8  Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
5:9  For there is no uprightness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
5:10  Declare them guilty, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out for the multitude of their rebellions; for they have rebelled against thee.
5:11  And all those that put their trust in thee shall rejoice: they shall ever be in jubilee, for thou shalt cover them; and all that love thy name shall be joyful in thee.
5:12  For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
