Psalm 5  21st Century King James Version

5 Give ear to my words, O Lord; consider my meditation.

² Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King and my God, for unto Thee will I pray.

³ My voice shalt Thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto Thee and will look up.

⁴ For Thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness; neither shall evil dwell with Thee.

⁵ The foolish shall not stand in Thy sight; Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

⁶ Thou shalt destroy them that speak lies; the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

⁷ But as for me, I will come into Thy house in the multitude of Thy mercy, and in Thy fear will I worship toward Thy holy temple.

⁸ Lead me, O Lord, in Thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make Thy way straight before my face.

⁹ For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is exceeding wickedness. Their throat is an open sepulcher; they flatter with their tongue.

¹⁰ Destroy Thou them, O God! Let them fall by their own counsels. Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against Thee.

¹¹ 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.

¹² For Thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt Thou compass him about as with a shield.
