5
1 For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning her that inherits.
2 Hearken to my words, O Lord,
Attend to my cry.
3 Attend to the voice of my supplication,
My King, and my God:
For to thee, O Lord, will I pray.
4 In the morning thou shalt hear my voice:
In the morning will I wait upon thee, and will look up.
5 For thou art not a God that desires iniquity;
Neither shall the worker of wickedness dwell with thee.
6 Neither shall the transgressors continue in thy sight:
Thou hatest, O Lord, all them that work iniquity.
7 Thou wilt destroy all that speak falsehood:
The Lord abhors the bloody and deceitful man.
8 But I will enter into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy:
I will worship in thy fear toward thy holy temple.
9 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies;
Make my way plain before thy face.
10 For there is no truth in their mouth;
Their heart is vain;
Their throat is an open sepulcher;
With their tongues they have used deceit.
11 Judge them, O God;
Let them fail of their counsels:
Cast them out according to the abundance of their ungodliness;
For they have provoked thee, O Lord.
12 But let all that trust on thee be glad in thee:
They shall exult forever, and thou shalt dwell among them;
And all that love thy name shall rejoice in thee.
13 For thou, Lord, shalt bless the righteous:
Thou hast compassed us as with a shield of favor.
