1 Hear my words, LORD! Consider my groans!
1 Give ear to my words, O Lord; give heed to my sighing.
2 Pay attention to the sound of my cries, my king and my God, because I am praying to you!
2 Listen to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to you I pray.
3 LORD, in the morning you hear my voice. In the morning I lay it all out before you. Then I wait expectantly.
3 O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I plead my case to you, and watch.
4 Because you aren't a God who enjoys wickedness; evil doesn't live with you.
4 For you are not a God who delights in wickedness; evil will not sojourn with you.
5 Arrogant people won't last long in your sight; you hate all evildoers;
5 The boastful will not stand before your eyes; you hate all evildoers.
6 you destroy liars. The LORD despises people who are violent and dishonest.
6 You destroy those who speak lies; the Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful.
7 But me? I will enter your house because of your abundant, faithful love; I will bow down at your holy temple, honoring you.
7 But I, through the abundance of your steadfast love, will enter your house, I will bow down toward your holy temple in awe of you.
8 LORD, because of many enemies, please lead me in your righteousness. Make your way clear, right in front of me.
8 Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies; make your way straight before me.
