Psalms 5:6-11

⁶You destroy all speakers of lies, people of blood and deceit you abhor.

⁷But I, through your kindness abundant, may enter your house, and towards the shrine of your temple may reverently bow.

⁸Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way level before me.

⁹For their mouth is a stranger to truth, their heart is a pit of destruction. Their throat is a wide open grave, their tongue the smooth tongue of the hypocrite.

¹⁰Condemn them, God; let their schemes bring them down to the ground. For their numberless crimes thrust them down for playing the rebel against you.

¹¹But let all who take refuge in you ring out their gladness forever. Protect those who love your name, so they may exult in you.
