2019 Book Of Common Prayer: Psalm 5

Psalm 5:
Give ear to my words, O Lord;
consider my meditation.
O hearken unto the voice of my calling, my King and my God,
for unto you will I make my prayer.
My voice shall you hear in the morning, O Lord;
early in the morning will I direct my prayer unto you,
and will look up.
For you are not a god who has pleasure in wickedness,
neither shall any evil dwell with you.
The boastful shall not stand in your sight,
for you hate all those who work iniquity.
You shall destroy those who speak lies;
the Lord will abhor the bloodthirsty and the deceitful.
But as for me, through the multitude of your mercies I will come into your house,
and in reverence will I bow myself toward your holy temple.
Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness, because of my enemies;
make your way straight before my face.
For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;
their heart is eaten up with wickedness.
Their throat is an open sepulcher;
they flatter with their tongue.
Declare them guilty, O God; let them fall because of their own devices;
because of the multitude of their transgressions cast them out, for they have rebelled against you.
But let all those who put their trust in you rejoice;
let them ever give thanks because you defend them;
those who love your Name shall be joyful in you.
For you, Lord, will give your blessing unto the righteous,
and with your favorable kindness you will defend him as with a shield.
