1Giveearto my words,O LORD,Considermy groaning.
2Heedthe soundof my cryfor help,my Kingand my God,For to You I pray.
3In the morning,O LORD,You will hearmy voice;In the morningI will order[my] [prayer] to You and [eagerly] watch.
4For You are not a Godwho takespleasurein wickedness;Noevildwellswith You.
5The boastfulshall not standbeforeYour eyes;You hateallwho doiniquity.
6You destroythose who speakfalsehood;The LORDabhorsthe manof bloodshedand deceit.
7But as for me, by Your abundantlovingkindnessI will enterYour house,At Your holytempleI will bowin reverencefor You.
8O LORD,leadme in Your righteousnessbecauseof my foes;MakeYour waystraightbeforeme.
9Thereis nothingreliablein whatthey say;Their inwardpartis destruction[itself]. Their throatis an opengrave;They flatterwith their tongue.
10Holdthem guilty,O God;By their own deviceslet them fall!In the multitudeof their transgressionsthrustthem out, For they are rebelliousagainst You.
11But let allwho takerefugein You be glad,Let them eversingfor joy;And may You shelterthem, That those who loveYour namemay exultin You.
12For it is You who blessesthe righteousman,O LORD,You surroundhim with favoras with a shield.
