Psalm 5
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Trust in God for Deliverance from Enemies
To the choirmaster: for the flutes. A Psalm of David.
5 Give ear to my words, O Lord;
give heed to my groaning.
2 Hearken to the sound of my cry,
my King and my God,
for to thee do I pray.
3 O Lord, in the morning thou dost hear my voice;
in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for thee, and watch.
4 For thou art not a God who delights in wickedness;
evil may not sojourn with thee.
5 The boastful may not stand before thy eyes;
thou hatest all evildoers.
6 Thou destroyest those who speak lies;
the Lord abhors bloodthirsty and deceitful men.
7 But I through the abundance of thy steadfast love
will enter thy house,
I will worship toward thy holy temple
in the fear of thee.
8 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness
because of my enemies;
make thy way straight before me.
9 For there is no truth in their mouth;
their heart is destruction,
their throat is an open sepulchre,
they flatter with their tongue.
10 Make them bear their guilt, O God;
let them fall by their own counsels;
because of their many transgressions cast them out,
for they have rebelled against thee.
11 But let all who take refuge in thee rejoice,
let them ever sing for joy;
and do thou defend them,
that those who love thy name may exult in thee.
12 For thou dost bless the righteous, O Lord;
thou dost cover him with favor as with a shield.

A Prayer for Guidance
To the Chief Musician. With [a]flutes. A Psalm of David.
5 Give (A)ear to my words, O Lord,
Consider my [b]meditation.
2 Give heed to the voice of my cry,
My King and my God,
For to You I will pray.
3 My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord;
(B)In the morning I will direct it to You,
And I will look up.
4 For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness,
Nor shall evil [c]dwell with You.
5 The (C)boastful shall not (D)stand in Your sight;
You hate all workers of iniquity.
6 You shall destroy those who speak falsehood;
The Lord abhors the (E)bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
7 But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy;
In fear of You I will worship toward [d]Your holy temple.
8 (F)Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies;
Make Your way straight before my face.
9 For there is no [e]faithfulness in their mouth;
Their inward part is destruction;
(G)Their throat is an open tomb;
They flatter with their tongue.
10 Pronounce them guilty, O God!
Let them fall by their own counsels;
Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions,
For they have rebelled against You.
11 But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You;
Let them ever shout for joy, because You [f]defend them;
Let those also who love Your name
Be joyful in You.
12 For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous;
With favor You will surround him as with a shield.

Psalm 5[a]
For the director of music. For pipes. A psalm of David.
1 Listen(A) to my words, Lord,
consider my lament.(B)
2 Hear my cry for help,(C)
my King and my God,(D)
for to you I pray.
3 In the morning,(E) Lord, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait expectantly.(F)
4 For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness;
with you, evil people(G) are not welcome.
5 The arrogant(H) cannot stand(I)
in your presence.
You hate(J) all who do wrong;
6 you destroy those who tell lies.(K)
The bloodthirsty and deceitful
you, Lord, detest.
7 But I, by your great love,
can come into your house;
in reverence(L) I bow down(M)
toward your holy temple.(N)
8 Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness(O)
because of my enemies—
make your way straight(P) before me.
9 Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
their heart is filled with malice.
Their throat is an open grave;(Q)
with their tongues they tell lies.(R)
10 Declare them guilty, O God!
Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,(S)
for they have rebelled(T) against you.
11 But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
let them ever sing for joy.(U)
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name(V) may rejoice in you.(W)

Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Salmo 5
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Panalangin para Ingatan ng Panginoon
5 O Panginoon, pakinggan nʼyo po ang aking mga hinaing at iyak.
2 Pakinggan nʼyo ang paghingi ko ng tulong, O Dios ko at aking Hari,
dahil sa inyo lamang ako lumalapit.
3 Sa umaga, O Panginoon naririnig nʼyo ang aking panalangin, habang sinasabi ko sa inyo ang aking mga kahilingan at hinihintay ko ang inyong kasagutan.
4 Kayo ay Dios na hindi natutuwa sa kasamaan,
at hindi nʼyo tinatanggap ang taong namumuhay sa kasalanan.
5 Ang mga mapagmataas ay hindi makalalapit sa inyong harapan,
at ang mga gumagawa ng kasamaan ay inyong kinasusuklaman.
6 Lilipulin nʼyo ang mga sinungaling.
Kinasusuklaman nʼyo ang mga mamamatay-tao at mga mandaraya.
7 Ngunit dahil sa dakila nʼyong pag-ibig sa akin,
makakapasok ako sa banal nʼyong templo.
At doon akoʼy sasamba nang may paggalang sa inyo.
8 O Panginoon, dahil napakarami ng aking mga kaaway,
gabayan nʼyo ako tungo sa inyong matuwid na daan.
Gawin nʼyong madali para sa akin ang pagsunod ko sa inyong kagustuhan.
9 Hindi maaasahan ang sinasabi ng aking mga kaaway,
laging hangad nilaʼy kapahamakan ng iba.
Ang kanilang pananalita ay mapanganib katulad ng bukas na libingan,
at ang kanilang sinasabi ay puro panloloko.
10 O Dios, parusahan nʼyo po ang aking mga kaaway.
Mapahamak sana sila sa sarili nilang masamang plano.
Itakwil nʼyo sila dahil sa kanilang mga kasalanan,
dahil silaʼy sumuway sa inyo.
11 Ngunit magalak nawa ang lahat ng nanganganlong sa inyo;
magsiawit nawa sila sa kagalakan.
Ingatan nʼyo silang mga nagmamahal sa inyo, upang sa inyo magmula ang kanilang kagalakan.
12 Pinagpapala nʼyo Panginoon ang mga matuwid.
Ang pag-ibig nʼyo ay parang kalasag na nag-iingat sa kanila.

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 leasing: 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 very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; 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 favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
