For the director of music. For pipes.
A psalm of David.
1
Listen to my words, Lord,
consider my lament.
2
Hear my cry for help,
my King and my God,
for to you I pray.
3
In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait expectantly.
4
For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness;
with you, evil people are not welcome.
5
The arrogant cannot stand
in your presence.
You hate all who do wrong;
6
you destroy those who tell lies.
The bloodthirsty and deceitful
you, Lord, detest.
7
But I, by your great love,
can come into your house;
in reverence I bow down
towards your holy temple.
8
Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness
because of my enemies –
make your way straight before me.
9
Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
their heart is filled with malice.
Their throat is an open grave;
with their tongues they tell lies.
10
Declare them guilty, O God!
Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,
for they have rebelled against you.
11
But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
12
Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favour as with a shield.
