| 1. | For the Chief Musician; with the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. |
| 2. | Give ear to my words, O Jehovah, Consider my meditation. |
| 3. | Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God; For unto thee do I pray. |
| 4. | O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; In the morning will I order my prayer unto thee, and will keep watch. |
| 5. | For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: Evil shall not sojourn with thee. |
| 6. | The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight: Thou hatest all workers of iniquity. |
| 7. | Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man. |
| 8. | 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. |
| 9. | Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; Make thy way straight before my face. |
| 10. | 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. |
| 11. | Hold them guilty, O God; Let them fall by their own counsels; Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions; For they have rebelled against thee. |
| 12. | But let all those that take refuge in thee rejoice, Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: Let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. |
| 13. | For thou wilt bless the righteous; O Jehovah, thou wilt compass him with favor as with a shield. |
