In the morning, O Lord, [a]You will hear my voice;
In the (A)morning I will order my [b]prayer to You and eagerly (B)watch.

For You are not a God (C)who takes pleasure in wickedness;
(D)No evil [c]dwells with You.
The (E)boastful shall not (F)stand before Your eyes;
You (G)hate all who do iniquity.
You (H)destroy those who speak falsehood;
The Lord abhors (I)the man of bloodshed and deceit.
But as for me, (J)by Your abundant lovingkindness I will enter Your house,
[d]At Your holy temple I will (K)bow in (L)reverence for You.
