Psalm 5

Common English Bible CEB

1 Hear my words, LORD! Consider my groans!

2 Pay attention to the sound of my cries, my king and my God, because I am praying to you!

3 LORD, in the morning you hear my voice. In the morning I lay it all out before you. Then I wait expectantly.

4 Because you aren't a God who enjoys wickedness; evil doesn't live with you.

5 Arrogant people won't last long in your sight; you hate all evildoers;

6 you destroy liars. The LORD despises people who are violent and dishonest.

7 But me? I will enter your house because of your abundant, faithful love; I will bow down at your holy temple, honoring you.

8 LORD, because of many enemies, please lead me in your righteousness. Make your way clear, right in front of me.

9 Because there's no truth in my enemies' mouths, all they have inside them is destruction. Their throats are open graves; their tongues slick with talk.

10 Condemn them, God! Let them fail by their own plans. Throw them out for their many sins because they've rebelled against you.

11 But let all who take refuge in you celebrate. Let them sing out loud forever! Protect them so that all who love your name can rejoice in you.

12 Because you, LORD, bless the righteous. You cover them with favor like a shield.

New King James Version NKJV

1 To the Chief Musician. With flutes. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O Lord, Consider my meditation.

2 Give heed to the voice of my cry, My King and my God, For to You I will pray.

3 My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord; In the morning I will direct it to You, And I will look up.

4 For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness, Nor shall evil dwell with You.

5 The boastful shall not stand in Your sight; You hate all workers of iniquity.

6 You shall destroy those who speak falsehood; The Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

7 But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; In fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple.

8 Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; Make Your way straight before my face.

9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; Their inward part is destruction; Their throat is an open tomb; They flatter with their tongue.

10 Pronounce them guilty, O God! Let them fall by their own counsels; Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions, For they have rebelled against You.

11 But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them; Let those also who love Your name Be joyful in You.

12 For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; With favor You will surround him as with a shield.
