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.
