1. Give ear to my words, O LORD; consider my groaning.
|
||
|
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
||
|
|
2. Give attention to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to you do I pray.
|
||
|
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
||
|
|
3. O LORD, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch.
|
||
|
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
||
|
|
4. For you are not a God who delights in wickedness; evil may not dwell with you.
|
||
|
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
||
|
|
5. The boastful shall not stand before your eyes; you hate all evildoers.
|
||
|
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
||
|
|
6. You destroy those who speak lies; the LORD abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
|
||
|
|
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
||
|
|
7. But I, through the abundance of your steadfast love, will enter your house. I will bow down toward your holy temple in the fear of you.
|
||
|
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
||
|
|
8. Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies; make your way straight before me.
|
||
|
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
||
|
|
9. For there is no truth in their mouth; their inmost self is destruction; their throat is an open grave; they flatter with their tongue.
|
||
|
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
||
|
|
10. Make them bear their guilt, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; because of the abundance of their transgressions cast them out, for they have rebelled against you.
|
||
|
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
||
|
|
11. But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them ever sing for joy, and spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may exult in you.
|
||
|
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
||
|
|
12. For you bless the righteous, O LORD; you cover him with favor as with a shield.
