Psalms 5
5
A Prayer for Guidance
To the Chief Musician. With flutes. A Psalm of David.
1Give #Ps. 4:1ear to my words, O Lord,
Consider my meditation.
2Give heed to the voice of my cry,
My King and my God,
For to You I will pray.
3My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord;
#Ps. 55:17; 88:13In the morning I will direct it to You,
And I will look up.
4For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness,
Nor shall evil dwell with You.
5The #(Hab. 1:13)boastful shall not #Ps. 1:5stand in Your sight;
You hate all workers of iniquity.
6You shall destroy those who speak falsehood;
The Lord abhors the #Ps. 55:23bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
7But 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#Ps. 25:4, 5; 27:11; 31:3Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies;
Make Your way straight before my face.
9For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;
Their inward part is destruction;
#Rom. 3:13Their throat is an open tomb;
They flatter with their tongue.
10Pronounce 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.
11But 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.
12For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous;
With favor You will surround him as with a shield.

Tehillim 5
5
(For the one directing. For the flutes. Mizmor Dovid)
1Give ear to my words, Hashem, consider my meditation.
2 Pay heed unto the voice of my cry, Malki v'Elohai; for unto Thee will I daven.
3 My voice shalt Thou hear in the boker, Hashem; in the boker will I bring my prayer before Thee as a spiritual sacrifice and wait for an answer.
4 For Thou art not El that hath pleasure in resha; neither shall rah dwell with Thee.
5 The holelim (arrogant) shall not stand in Thy sight; Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak kazav (falsehood); Hashem will abhor the ish damim u'mirmah (bloody and deceitful man).
7 But as for me, I will come into Thy Bais in the multitude of Thy chesed; and in Thy fear will I bow down toward Thy Heikhal Kodesh.
8 Lead me, Hashem, in Thy tzedakah because of mine enemies; make Thy Derech straight before my face.
9 For there is nothing trustworthy in their mouth; their inwardness is a corruptible abyss; their throat is an open kever; they speak smooth deceit with their leshon.
10 Punish them, Elohim; let them fall by their own intrigues; in the multitude of their peysha'im cast them out; for they have rebelled against Thee.
11 But let all those that take refuge in Thee rejoice; let them shout for joy l'olam, and spread Thou protection over them that they be joyful in Thee, who love Shemecha (Thy Name).
12 For Thou, Hashem, wilt bless the Tzaddik; with ratzon (favor) wilt Thou encompass him as with a tzinnah (large rectangular shield).
