For the Chief Musician; with the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David.

1 Give ear to my words, O Jehovah,

Consider my meditation.

2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God;

For unto thee do I pray.

3 O Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice;

In the morning will I order my prayer unto thee, and will keep watch.

4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness:

Evil shall not sojourn with thee.

5 The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight:

Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

6 Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies:

Jehovah abhorreth the blood-thirsty and deceitful man.

7 But as for me, in the abundance of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house:

In thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

8 Lead me, O Jehovah, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies;

Make thy way straight before my face.

9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;

Their inward part is very wickedness;

Their throat is an open sepulchre;

They flatter with their tongue.

10 Hold them guilty, O God;

Let them fall by their own counsels;

Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions;

For they have rebelled against thee.

11 But let all those that take refuge in thee rejoice,

Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them:

Let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

12 For thou wilt bless the righteous;

O Jehovah, thou wilt compass him with favor as with a shield.

大卫的诗，交给诗班长，用管乐伴奏。 1 耶和华啊！求你留心听我的话，

顾念我的叹息。

2 我的王，我的　神啊！

求你倾听我呼求的声音，

因为我向你祷告。

3 耶和华啊！求你在清晨听我的声音；

我要一早向你陈明，

并且迫切等候。

4 因为你是不喜爱邪恶的　神，

恶人不能与你同住。

5 狂傲的人不能在你眼前站立，

你恨恶所有作恶的人。

6 你必灭绝说谎话的；

好流人血和弄诡诈的，

都是耶和华所憎恶的。

7 至于我，我必凭着你丰盛的慈爱，

进入你的殿；

我要存着敬畏你的心，

向你的圣所敬拜。

8 耶和华啊！求你因我仇敌的缘故，

按着你的公义引导我，

在我面前铺平你的道路。

9 因为他们的口里没有真话，

他们的内心充满毁灭人的意图，

他们的喉咙是敞开的坟墓，

他们用舌头弄诡诈。

10 　神啊！求你定他们的罪；

愿他们因自己的诡计跌倒，

愿你因他们许多的过犯，把他们赶出去，

因为他们背叛了你。

11 愿所有投靠你的人都喜乐，

常常欢呼；

愿你保护他们，

又愿爱你名的人，因你欢乐。

12 耶和华啊！因为你必赐福给义人，

你要以恩惠像盾牌四面护卫他。
