Oración pidiendo protección de los malos

Para el director del coro; para acompañamiento de flauta[a]. Salmo de David.

Escucha mis palabras, oh Señor(A);
considera mi lamento[b](B).
Está atento a la voz de mi clamor(C), Rey mío y Dios mío(D),
porque es a ti a quien oro.
Oh Señor, de mañana oirás mi voz;
de mañana presentaré[c] mi oración[d] a ti(E),
y con ansias esperaré(F).

Porque tú no eres un Dios que se complace en la maldad(G);
el mal no mora[e] contigo(H).
Los que se ensalzan(I) no estarán delante de tus ojos(J);
aborreces a todos los que hacen iniquidad(K).
Destruyes a los que hablan falsedad(L);
el Señor abomina al hombre sanguinario y engañador[f](M).
Mas yo, por la abundancia de tu misericordia(N) entraré en tu casa;
me postraré(O) en[g] tu santo templo con reverencia[h](P).

Señor, guíame(Q) en tu justicia(R) por causa de mis enemigos[i];
allana[j] delante de mí tu camino(S).
Porque no hay sinceridad en lo que dicen[k](T);
destrucción son sus entrañas(U),
sepulcro abierto es su garganta;
con su lengua hablan lisonjas[l](V).
10 Tenlos por culpables, oh Dios;
¡que caigan por sus mismas intrigas(W)!
Echalos fuera por la multitud de sus transgresiones(X),
porque se rebelan contra ti(Y).

11 Pero alégrense(Z) todos los que en ti se refugian(AA);
para siempre canten con júbilo,
porque tú los proteges[m](AB);
regocíjense en ti los que aman tu nombre(AC).
12 Porque tú, oh Señor, bendices al justo(AD),
como con un escudo lo rodeas de tu favor(AE).

Psalm 5[a]

For the director of music. For pipes. A psalm of David.

Listen(A) to my words, Lord,
    consider my lament.(B)
Hear my cry for help,(C)
    my King and my God,(D)
    for to you I pray.

In the morning,(E) Lord, you hear my voice;
    in the morning I lay my requests before you
    and wait expectantly.(F)
For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness;
    with you, evil people(G) are not welcome.
The arrogant(H) cannot stand(I)
    in your presence.
You hate(J) all who do wrong;
    you destroy those who tell lies.(K)
The bloodthirsty and deceitful
    you, Lord, detest.
But I, by your great love,
    can come into your house;
in reverence(L) I bow down(M)
    toward your holy temple.(N)

Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness(O)
    because of my enemies—
    make your way straight(P) before me.
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)

12 Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;(X)
    you surround them(Y) with your favor as with a shield.(Z)

A Prayer for Guidance

To the Chief Musician. With [a]flutes. A Psalm of David.

Give (A)ear to my words, O Lord,
Consider my [b]meditation.
Give heed to the voice of my cry,
My King and my God,
For to You I will pray.
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.

For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness,
Nor shall evil [c]dwell with You.
The (C)boastful shall not (D)stand in Your sight;
You hate all workers of iniquity.
You shall destroy those who speak falsehood;
The Lord abhors the (E)bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

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.
(F)Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies;
Make Your way straight before my face.

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.
