Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.

5:3
My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
—
5:4

—
5:5
The foolish shall not stand in thy sight (note: Heb. before thine eyes): thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies (note: Heb. those which observe me); make thy way straight before my face.
—
5:9
For there is no faithfulness (note: Or, steadfastness) in their mouth (note: Heb. in his mouth i. in the mouth of any of them); their inward part is very wickedness (note: Heb. wickedness); their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

5:10
Destroy thou them (note: Or, make them guilty), O God; let them fall by their own counsels (note: Or, from their counsels); cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.

But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them (note: Heb. thou coverest over, or protectest them): let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

5:12
For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him (note: Heb. crown him) as with a shield.
