Psm5:2 Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to Thee do I pray.
Psm5:3 In the morning, O LORD, Thou wilt hear my voice; In the morning I will order [my] [prayer] to Thee and [eagerly] watch.
Psm5:4 For Thou art not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil dwells with Thee.
Psm5:5 The boastful shall not stand before Thine eyes; Thou dost hate all who do iniquity.

Psm5:9 There is nothing reliable in what they say; Their inward part is destruction [itself]; Their throat is an open grave; They flatter with their tongue.
Psm5:10 Hold them guilty, O God; By their own devices let them fall! In the multitude of their transgressions thrust them out, For they are rebellious against Thee.
Psm5:11 But let all who take refuge in Thee be glad, Let them ever sing for joy; And mayest Thou shelter them, That those who love Thy name may exult in Thee.
Psm5:12 For it is Thou who dost bless the righteous man, O LORD, Thou dost surround him with favor as with a shield.
