5:1 For the music director; with the flutes. A psalm of David. Hear my words, O Yahweh. Give heed to my sighing.
5:2 Listen to the sound of my pleading, my king and my God, for to you I pray.
5:3 O Yahweh, in the morning you will hear my voice. In the morning I will set forth my case to you and I will watch.
5:4 For you are not a God who desires wickedness. Evil cannot dwell with you.
5:5 The boastful do not stand before your eyes. You hate all evildoers.
5:6 You destroy speakers of lies. A man of bloodshed and deceit Yahweh abhors.
5:7 But as for me, through the abundance of your steadfast love I will enter your house. I will bow down toward your holy temple in awe of you.
5:8 O Yahweh, lead me in your righteousness because of my enemies; make straight before me your way.
5:9 For there is not anything reliable in his mouth; their inner part is destruction. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongue they speak deceit.
5:10 Treat them as guilty, O God; let them fall because of their plans. Because of the abundance of their transgressions cast them out, for they have rebelled against you.
5:11 But let all who take shelter in you rejoice. Let them ever sing for joy, because you spread protection over them; And let those who love your name exult in you.
5:12 For you bless the righteous. O Yahweh, like a shield you surround him with good favor.
