⁷ But as for me, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house: In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

⁸ Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; Make thy way straight before my face.

⁴ You are not a god who is pleased with wicked people; you do not ◄associate with/invite into your house► those who do what is evil.

⁵ You do not allow those who are very proud to come to you to worship you. You hate all those who do evil things.

⁷ Yahweh, because you love me so much and so faithfully, I come into your temple. I revere you greatly, and I bow down to worship you at your sacred temple.

⁸ Yahweh, because you act righteously toward me, show me what is right for me to do. Because I have many enemies, show me clearly what you want me to do.

⁹ My enemies never say what is true; they just want to destroy others. The things that they say MTY are as foul as an open grave where a corpse is decaying. They use their tongues to tell lies.

⁴ For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wrongdoing; there is no evil with you.

⁵ The sons of pride have no place before you; you are a hater of all workers of evil.

⁶ You will send destruction on those whose words are false; the cruel man and the man of deceit are hated by the Lord.

⁷ But as for me, I will come into your house, in the full measure of your mercy; and in your fear I will give worship, turning my eyes to your holy Temple.

⁸ Be my guide, O Lord, in the ways of your righteousness, because of those who are against me; make your way straight before my face.

⁹ For no faith may be put in their words; their inner part is nothing but evil; their throat is like an open place for the dead; smooth are the words of their tongues.

⁴ For to thee will I pray: O Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear my voice.

⁵ In the morning I will stand before thee, and will see: because thou art not a God that willest iniquity.

⁶ Neither shall the wicked dwell near thee: nor shall the unjust abide before thy eyes.

⁸ But as for me in the multitude of thy mercy, I will come into thy house; I will worship towards thy holy temple, in thy fear.

⁹ Conduct me, O Lord, in thy justice: because of my enemies, direct my way in thy sight.

³ Please listen to what I have to say in the morning, Lord. Every morning I put my requests to you and wait for your reply.

⁴ For you are not a God who has any pleasure in wickedness; evil has no place with you.

⁵ The proud cannot come into your presence; you hate everyone who does evil.

⁶ You destroy those who tell lies. The Lord loathes bloodthirsty and deceptive people.

⁷ But because of the greatness of your trustworthy love, I can come into your house; in awe of you I bow down towards your holy Temple.

⁸ Lead me, Lord, you who always does what is right, save me from my enemies. Make your way clear to me.

⁸ (5-9) O LORD, lead me in Thy righteousness because of them that lie in wait for me; make Thy way straight before my face.

⁹ (5-10) For there is no sincerity in their mouth; their inward part is a yawning gulf, their throat is an open sepulchre; they make smooth their tongue.

⁸ (5:9) O Lord, lead me in thy righteousness because of those that regard me enviously; make straight before me thy way.

⁸ Lord, lead thou forth me in thy rightwiseness for mine enemies; dress thou my way in thy sight.
