5:2 Pay attention to the sound of my cries, my king and my God, because I am praying to you!
5:3 Lord, in the morning you hear my voice. In the morning I lay it all out before you. Then I wait expectantly.
5:4 Because you aren’t a God who enjoys wickedness; evil doesn’t live with you.
5:5 Arrogant people won’t last long in your sight; you hate all evildoers;
5:6 you destroy liars. The Lord despises people who are violent and dishonest.
5:7 But me? I will enter your house because of your abundant, faithful love; I will bow down at your holy temple, honoring you.
5:8 Lord, because of many enemies, please lead me in your righteousness. Make your way clear, right in front of me.
5:9 Because there’s no truth in my enemies’ mouths, all they have inside them is destruction. Their throats are open graves; their tongues slick with talk.
5:10 Condemn them, God! Let them fail by their own plans. Throw them out for their many sins because they’ve rebelled against you.
5:11 But let all who take refuge in you celebrate. Let them sing out loud forever! Protect them so that all who love your name can rejoice in you.
5:12 Because you, Lord, bless the righteous. You cover them with favor like a shield.
