Psalms 5:8-12

8LeadH5148 me, O YhwhH3068, in thy righteousnessH6666 because of mine enemiesH8324; make thy wayH1870 straightH3474 before my faceH6440.1

9For there is no faithfulnessH3559 in their mouthH6310; their inwardH7130 part is very wickednessH1942; their throatH1627 is an openH6605 sepulchreH6913; they flatterH2505 with their tongueH3956.234

10DestroyH816 thou them, O GodH430; let them fallH5307 by their own counselsH4156; cast them outH5080 in the multitudeH7230 of their transgressionsH6588; for they have rebelledH4784 against thee.56

11But let all those that put their trustH2620 in thee rejoiceH8055: let them everH5769 shout for joyH7442, because thou defendestH5526 them: let them also that loveH157 thy nameH8034 be joyfulH5970 in thee.7

12For thou, YhwhH3068, wilt blessH1288 the righteousH6662; with favourH7522 wilt thou compassH5849 him as with a shieldH6793.8
