Psalms 5
To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David.
1Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.2Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.
3My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct <add>my prayer</add> unto thee, and will look up.
4For thou <add>art</add> not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
5The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
7But as for me, I will come <add>into</add> thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: <add>and</add> in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
8Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
9For <add>there is</add> no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part <add>is</add> very wickedness; their throat <add>is</add> an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
10Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
11But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as <add>with</add> a shield.
