Psalm 5
New King James Version
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.

Modern English Version
Psalm 5
For the Music Director. With the flutes. A Psalm of David.
1 Give ear to my words, O Lord;
consider my meditation.
2 Listen to the voice of my cry,
my King and my God,
for to You will I pray.
3 O Lord, in the morning You will hear my voice;
in the morning I will direct my prayer to You,
and I will watch expectantly.
4 For You are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness,
nor will evil dwell with You.
5 Those who boast will not stand in Your sight;
You hate all workers of iniquity.
6 You will destroy those who speak lies;
the Lord abhors
the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
7 But as for me, in the abundance of Your mercy
I will enter Your house;
in fear of You I will worship
at Your holy temple.
8 Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness
because of my enemies;
make Your way straight before me.
9 For there is no uprightness in their mouth;
destruction is in their midst;
their throat is an open tomb;
they flatter with their tongue.
10 Declare them guilty, O God;
may they fall by their own counsels;
cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions,
for they have rebelled against You.
11 But may all those who seek refuge in You rejoice;
may they ever shout for joy,
because You defend them;
may those who love Your name be joyful in You.
12 For You, Lord, will bless the righteous;
You surround him with favor like a shield.
Salmos 5
Reina-Valera 1960
Plegaria pidiendo protección
Al músico principal; sobre Nehilot. Salmo de David.
5 Escucha, oh Jehová, mis palabras;
Considera mi gemir.
2 Está atento a la voz de mi clamor, Rey mío y Dios mío,
Porque a ti oraré.
3 Oh Jehová, de mañana oirás mi voz;
De mañana me presentaré delante de ti, y esperaré.
4 Porque tú no eres un Dios que se complace en la maldad;
El malo no habitará junto a ti.
5 Los insensatos no estarán delante de tus ojos;
Aborreces a todos los que hacen iniquidad.
6 Destruirás a los que hablan mentira;
Al hombre sanguinario y engañador abominará Jehová.
7 Mas yo por la abundancia de tu misericordia entraré en tu casa;
Adoraré hacia tu santo templo en tu temor.
8 Guíame, Jehová, en tu justicia, a causa de mis enemigos;
Endereza delante de mí tu camino.
9 Porque en la boca de ellos no hay sinceridad;
Sus entrañas son maldad,
Sepulcro abierto es su garganta,
Con su lengua hablan lisonjas.(A)
10 Castígalos, oh Dios;
Caigan por sus mismos consejos;
Por la multitud de sus transgresiones échalos fuera,
Porque se rebelaron contra ti.
11 Pero alégrense todos los que en ti confían;
Den voces de júbilo para siempre, porque tú los defiendes;
En ti se regocijen los que aman tu nombre.
12 Porque tú, oh Jehová, bendecirás al justo;
Como con un escudo lo rodearás de tu favor.
Psalm 5
Authorized (King James) Version
Psalm 5
To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David.
1 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.
