< Psalms 5 >

1 To the choirmaster to the flutes a psalm of David. Words my give ear to! - O Yahweh consider! sighing my.
For the leader: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by the flute. Hear my words, Lord: give heed to my whisper.
2 Pay attention! - to [the] sound of cry for help my O king my and God my for to you I pray.
Attend to my loud cry for help, my king and my God.
3 O Yahweh morning you hear voice my morning I arrange for you so I may watch.
When I pray to you, Lord, in the morning, hear my voice. I make ready for you in the morning, and look for a sign.
4 For - not [are] a God desirous of wickedness - you not it sojourns with you evil.
For you are no God who takes pleasure in wickedness: no one of evil can be your guest.
5 Not they will take their stand boasters to before eyes your you hate all [those who] do wickedness.
No braggarts can stand in your presence, you hate all workers of wrong.
6 You destroy [those who] speak falsehood everyone of blood and deceit he abhors - Yahweh.
You destroy all speakers of lies, people of blood and deceit you abhor.
7 And I in [the] greatness of covenant loyalty your I will enter house your I will bow down to [the] temple of holiness your in fear your.
But I, through your kindness abundant, may enter your house, and towards the shrine of your temple may reverently bow.
8 O Yahweh - lead me in righteousness your on account of enemies my (make straight *Q(k)*) before me way your.
Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way level before me.
9 For there not in mouth his [is] a reliable [thing] inner being their [is] destruction [is] a grave open throat their tongue their they speak flattery!
For their mouth is a stranger to truth, their heart is a pit of destruction. Their throat is a wide open grave, their tongue the smooth tongue of the hypocrite.
10 Hold guilty them - O God may they fall from own schemes their for [the] multitude of transgressions their banish them for they have rebelled against you.
Condemn them, God; let their schemes bring them down to the ground. For their numberless crimes thrust them down for playing the rebel against you.
11 And let them rejoice all [those who] seek refuge in you for ever let them shout for joy and you may cover over them and let them exult in you [those who] love name your.
But let all who take refuge in you ring out their gladness forever. Protect those who love your name, so they may exult in you.
12 For you you bless [the] righteous O Yahweh like shield favor you surround him.
For you give your blessing, Lord, to the godly, and the shield of your favour protects them.
