¹ Hear my words, O LORD, consider my meditation. ² Listen to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for to you will I pray. ³ My voice you will hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning I will direct my prayer to you, and will look up. ⁴ For you are not a God that has pleasure in wickedness: neither does evil dwell with you. ⁵ The foolish will not stand in your sight: you hate all workers of iniquity. ⁶ You will destroy them that speak lies: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man. ⁷ But as for me, I will come into your house in the multitude of your mercy: and in your fear will I worship toward your holy temple. ⁸ Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies; make your way straight before my face. ⁹ For there is no faithfulness in their mouth, their inward part is very wicked their throat is an open tomb, they flatter with their tongue. ¹⁰ Destroy them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against you. ¹¹ But let all those who put their trust in you rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because you defend them: also let those who love your name be joyful in you. ¹² For you, LORD, will bless the righteous; with favour you will surround him as with a shield.
