The Holy Bible

1Give ear to my words, O Lord,
consider my meditation.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry,
my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. 3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord;
in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.   4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness:
neither shall evil dwell with thee. 5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight:
thou hatest all workers of iniquity. 6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing:
the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.   7 But as for me, I will come into thy house
in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship
toward thy holy temple. 8 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness
because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.   9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;
their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre;
they flatter with their tongue. 10 Destroy thou them, O God;
let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions;
for they have rebelled against thee.   11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice:
let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them:
let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. 12 For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous;
with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
