←Prev   Psalms 5 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



5:1  Listen to my words, Lord, Consider my sighing.
5:2  Listen to the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to You I pray.
5:3  In the morning, Lord, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will present my prayer to You and be on the watch.
5:4  For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil can dwell with You.
5:5  The boastful will not stand before Your eyes; You hate all who do injustice.
5:6  You destroy those who speak lies; The Lord loathes the person of bloodshed and deceit.
5:7  But as for me, by Your abundant graciousness I will enter Your house, At Your holy temple I will bow in reverence for You.
5:8  Lord, lead me in Your righteousness because of my enemies; Make Your way straight before me.
5:9  For there is nothing trustworthy in their mouth; Their inward part is destruction itself. Their throat is an open grave; They flatter with their tongue.
5:10  Make them pay, God; Have them fall by their own schemes! Scatter them in the multitude of their wrongdoings, For they are rebellious against You.
5:11  But rejoice, all who take refuge in You, Sing for joy forever! And may You shelter them, That those who love Your name may rejoice in You.
5:12  For You bless the righteous person, Lord, You surround him with favor as with a shield.
