Psalm 5

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 Open your ears to my words, O LORD. Consider my innermost thoughts.

2 Pay attention to my cry for help, my king and my God, because I pray only to you.

3 In the morning, O LORD, hear my voice. In the morning I lay my needs in front of you, and I wait.

4 You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness. Evil will never be your guest.

5 Those who brag cannot stand in your sight. You hate all troublemakers.

6 You destroy those who tell lies. The LORD is disgusted with bloodthirsty and deceitful people.

7 But I will enter your house because of your great mercy. Out of reverence for you, I will bow toward your holy temple.

8 O LORD, lead me in your righteousness because of those who spy on me. Make your way in front of me smooth.

9 Nothing in their mouths is truthful. Destruction comes from their hearts. Their throats are open graves. They flatter with their tongues.

10 Condemn them, O God. Let their own schemes be their downfall. Throw them out for their many crimes because they have rebelled against you.

11 But let all who take refuge in you rejoice. Let them sing with joy forever. Protect them, and let those who love your name triumph in you.

12 You bless righteous people, O LORD. Like a large shield, you surround them with your favor.

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.
