1. For the music director, on the wind instruments, a psalm of David.
2. Hear my words, Adonai, consider my groaning.
3. Listen to the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, for I pray to you.
4. Adonai, in the morning You hear my voice. In the morning I order my prayer before You and watch expectantly.
5. For You are not a God who rejoices in evil. No wickedness dwells with you.
6. Braggarts will not stand before your eyes. You hate all wrongdoers.
7. You destroy those who speak falsehood. A person of bloodshed and deceit Adonai detests.
8. But because of your great lovingkindness, I will enter Your House. I will bow toward Your holy Temple, in awe of You.
9. Lead me, Adonai, in Your righteousness, because of my enemies. Make Your path straight before me.
