Listen
to
the voice of my cry, my King and my God ;
For to
you
do
I pray.
Hearken
unto
the voice of my cry, my King ,
and my God :
for unto
thee
will
I pray.
Yahweh,
in the morning you
shall
hear
my
voice.
In the morning I
will lay
my requests
before
you
, and will watch
expectantly
.
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
has
pleasure in wickedness .
Evil can't
live
with you
.
For thou
art
not a God that
hath
pleasure in wickedness :
neither
shall
evil dwell
with thee
.
The arrogant
shall not stand in your
sight .
You
hate
all workers of iniquity.
The foolish
shall not stand in thy
sight :
thou
hatest
all workers of iniquity.
You
will
destroy those
who
speak lies.
Yahweh
abhors
the blood-thirsty
and deceitful man.
Thou
shalt
destroy them
that
speak leasing:
the LORD
will
abhor
the
bloody
and deceitful man.
But as for me, in
the
abundance
of
your
loving
kindness
I will come into your
house: I
will bow
toward your
holy temple in
reverence
of
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.
Lead me, Yahweh
, in your
righteousness because of my
enemies .
Make your
way straight before my face.
Lead me, O
LORD
, in thy
righteousness because of mine
enemies ;
make thy
way straight before my face.
For there is no faithfulness in their mouth .
Their heart
is destruction.
Their throat is an open tomb.
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.
Hold
them guilty
, God .
Let them fall by their own counsels; Thrust
them out in the multitude of their transgressions ,
For they have rebelled 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 let all those who
take
refuge
in you
rejoice ,
Let them always
shout for joy, because you
defend
them .
Let them also who
love your
name be joyful 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
will
bless the righteous .
Yahweh,
you
will
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.
