Psalm Chapter 5

Psalm 5, give ears to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation.

Harkin unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God, for unto thee will I pray.

My voice shall thou hear in the morning, O Lord, in the morning will I direct my prayer

unto thee, and will look up.

For thou art not a God that hath pleasure and wickedness, neither shall evil dwell with thee.

The fool is shall not stand in thy sight, thou hathest all workers of iniquity.

Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing.

The Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man, but as for me, I will come into thy house

in the multitude of thy mercy.

In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

Lead me O Lord in thy righteousness because of my enemies, make thy weight straight before

my face.

For there is no faithfulness in their mouth, their inward part is very wickedness.

Their throat is an open supple curve, they flatter with their tongue.

Destroy thou them O God, let them fall by their own counsels, cast them out of the multitude

of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against thee.

But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice.

Let them ever shout for joy because thou defendest them.

Let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

For thou, Lord, will bless the righteous, with favor wilt thou compass him as with the shield.
