Psalms 5:1-7

1Listen to my words, O Lord, Consider my groaning and sighing.

2Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to You I pray.

3In the morning, O Lord, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will prepare [a prayer and a sacrifice] for You and watch and wait [for You to speak to my heart].

4For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil [person] dwells with You.

5The boastful and the arrogant will not stand in Your sight; You hate all who do evil.

6You destroy those who tell lies; The Lord detests and rejects the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

7But as for me, I will enter Your house through the abundance of Your steadfast love and tender mercy; At Your holy temple I will bow [obediently] in reverence for You.
