Psalm 5 :: King James Version (KJV)

Prayer for Protection from the Wicked.

Psa 5:1[[To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David.]] Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.

Psa 5:2Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.

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

Psa 5:4

Psa 5:4For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.

Psa 5:5

Psa 5:5The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

Psa 5:6

Psa 5:6Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

Psa 5:7

Psa 5:7But 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.

Psa 5:8

Psa 5:8Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.

Psa 5:9

Psa 5:9For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

Psa 5:10

Psa 5:10Destroy 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.

Psa 5:11

Psa 5:11But 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.

Psa 5:12

Psa 5:12For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
