Psalms 5:1-7

1 1 2Give ear to my words, O Lord, Consider my 3 4groaning.2Heed 5the sound of my cry for help, 6my King and my God, For to You I pray.3In the morning, O Lord, 7You will hear my voice; In the 8morning I will order my 9prayer to You and eagerly 10watch.

4For You are not a God 11who takes pleasure in wickedness; 12No evil 13dwells with You.5The 14boastful shall not 15stand before Your eyes; You 16hate all who do iniquity.6You 17destroy those who speak falsehood; The Lord abhors 18the man of bloodshed and deceit.7But as for me, 19by Your abundant lovingkindness I will enter Your house, 20At Your holy temple I will 21bow in 22reverence for You.
