1. Give ear to my words, O Lord; consider my meditation.
2. Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God, for unto thee will I pray.
3. My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; early will I present myself unto thee and wait.
4. For thou art not a God that loves wickedness; neither shall one who is evil dwell with thee.
5. The foolish (those who are governed by carnal thoughts or desires) shall not stand in thy sight; thou dost hate all workers of iniquity.
