Psalm 5

Good News Translation GNT

1 Listen to my words, O Lord, and hear my sighs.

2 Listen to my cry for help, my God and king! I pray to you, O Lord;

3 you hear my voice in the morning; at sunrise I offer my prayer and wait for your answer.

4 You are not a God who is pleased with wrongdoing; you allow no evil in your presence.

5 You cannot stand the sight of the proud; you hate all wicked people.

6 You destroy all liars and despise violent, deceitful people.

7 But because of your great love I can come into your house; I can worship in your holy Temple and bow down to you in reverence.

8 Lord, I have so many enemies! Lead me to do your will; make your way plain for me to follow.

9 What my enemies say can never be trusted; they only want to destroy. Their words are flattering and smooth, but full of deadly deceit.

10 Condemn and punish them, O God; may their own plots cause their ruin. Drive them out of your presence because of their many sins and their rebellion against you.

11 But all who find safety in you will rejoice; they can always sing for joy. Protect those who love you; because of you they are truly happy.

12 You bless those who obey you, Lord; your love protects them like a shield.

1 <<For the Chief Musician, with the flutes. A Psalm by David.>> Give ear to my words, Yahweh. Consider my meditation.

2 Listen to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; For to you do I pray.

3 Yahweh, in the morning shall you hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.

4 For you are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness. Evil can't live with you.

5 The arrogant shall not stand in your sight. You hate all workers of iniquity.

6 You will destroy those who speak lies. Yahweh abhors the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.

7 But as for me, in the abundance of your lovingkindness I will come into your house: I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.

8 Lead me, Yahweh, 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 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.

11 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.

12 For you will bless the righteous. Yahweh, you will surround him with favor as with a shield.
