1. Give ear to my words, O Lord;consider my groaning.
2. Give attention to the sound of my cry,my King and my God,for to you do I pray.
3. O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice;in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch.
4. For you are not a God who delights in wickedness;evil may not dwell with you.
5. The boastful shall not stand before your eyes;you hate all evildoers.
6. You destroy those who speak lies;the Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
7. But I, through the abundance of your steadfast love,will enter your house.I will bow down toward your holy templein the fear of you.
8. Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousnessbecause of my enemies; make your way straight before me.
