Psalms 5:1-7

1Listen to my words, Lord, consider my lament.

2Hear my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray.

3In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.

4For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness; with you, evil people are not welcome.

5The arrogant cannot stand in your presence. You hate all who do wrong;

6you destroy those who tell lies. The bloodthirsty and deceitful you, Lord, detest.

7But I, by your great love, can come into your house; in reverence I bow down toward your holy temple.
