Psalm 5:7-12

Christian Standard Bible

⁷ But I enter your house
by the abundance of your faithful love;^(A)
I bow down toward your holy temple
in reverential awe of you.^(B)
8 Lord, lead me in your righteousness^(C)
because of my adversaries;
make your way straight before me.^(D)

⁹ For there is nothing reliable in what they say;^(E)
destruction is within them;
their throat is an open grave;
they flatter with their tongues.^(F)
10 Punish them, God;
let them fall by their own schemes.^(G)
Drive them out^(H) because of their many crimes,
for they rebel against you.^(I)

¹¹ But let all who take refuge in you rejoice;^(J)
let them shout for joy forever.
May you shelter them,^(K)
and may those who love your name boast about you.^(L)
12 For you, Lord, bless the righteous one;
you surround him with favor like a shield.^(M)
