Listen to my words, LORD, Consider my sighing.

Give ear to my words, O Lord , consider my meditation.

Listen to the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to You I pray.

Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.

In the morning, LORD, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will present my prayer to You and be on the watch.

My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord ; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil can dwell with You.

For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.

The boastful will not stand before Your eyes; You hate all who do injustice.

The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

You destroy those who speak lies; The LORD loathes the person of bloodshed and deceit.

Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

But as for me, by Your abundant graciousness I will enter Your house, At Your holy temple I will bow in reverence for You.

But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

LORD, lead me in Your righteousness because of my enemies; Make Your way straight before me.

Lead me, O Lord , in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.

For there is nothing trustworthy in their mouth; Their inward part is destruction itself. Their throat is an open grave; They flatter with their tongue.

For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

Make them pay, God; Have them fall by their own schemes! Scatter them in the multitude of their wrongdoings, For they are rebellious against You.

Destroy 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.

But rejoice, all who take refuge in You, Sing for joy forever! And may You shelter them, That those who love Your name may rejoice in You.

But 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.

For You bless the righteous person, LORD, You surround him with favor as with a shield.

For thou, Lord , wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
