Context of Psalms 5:11
9My enemies never speak what is true. They only want to destroy people. Their mouth has the smell of an open grave. Their tongues say nice things, but they are all lies! 10God, say that they are guilty! Let their own wicked ideas bring punishment to them. Send them away because they do so many bad things. Yes, they have turned against you. Please make people who turn to you happy. Make them always sing with joy, because you keep them safe. Take care of those who are faithful to you. Then they will be really happy. 12Lord, you bless those who live in a right way. Your love is like a shield that keeps them safe.
