1 Listen to my words, Lord,

consider my lament.

2 Hear my cry for help,

my King and my God,

for to you I pray.

3 In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice;

in the morning I lay my requests before you

and wait expectantly.

4 For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness;

with you, evil people are not welcome.

5 The arrogant cannot stand

in your presence.

You hate all who do wrong;

6 you destroy those who tell lies.

The bloodthirsty and deceitful

you, Lord, detest.

7 But I, by your great love,

can come into your house;

in reverence I bow down

toward your holy temple.

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 temple

in the fear of you.

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;

In the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

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

Neither shall evil dwell with thee.

5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight:

Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing:

The Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

7 But 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.

1 O Lord, hear me as I pray;

pay attention to my groaning.

2 Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God,

for I pray to no one but you.

3 Listen to my voice in the morning, Lord.

Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly.

4 O God, you take no pleasure in wickedness;

you cannot tolerate the sins of the wicked.

5 Therefore, the proud may not stand in your presence,

for you hate all who do evil.

6 You will destroy those who tell lies.

The Lord detests murderers and deceivers.

7 Because of your unfailing love, I can enter your house;

I will worship at your Temple with deepest awe.

1 Give ear to my words, O Lord,

Consider my meditation.

2 Give heed to the voice of my cry,

My King and my God,

For to You I will pray.

3 My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord;

In the morning I will direct it to You,

And I will look up.

4 For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness,

Nor shall evil dwell with You.

5 The boastful shall not stand in Your sight;

You hate all workers of iniquity.

6 You shall destroy those who speak falsehood;

The Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

7 But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy;

In fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple.

1 Lord, listen to my words.

Understand my sadness.

2 Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God,

because I pray to you.

3 Lord, every morning you hear my voice.

Every morning, I tell you what I need,

and I wait for your answer.

4 You are not a God who is pleased with the wicked;

you do not live with those who do evil.

5 Those people who make fun of you cannot stand before you.

You hate all those who do evil.

6 You destroy liars;

the Lord hates those who kill and trick others.

7 Because of your great love,

I can come into your Temple.

Because I fear and respect you,

I can worship in your holy Temple.

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.

1 Give ear to my words, O Jehovah; consider my meditation. 2 Hearken unto the voice of my crying, my king and my God; for to thee will I pray. 3 Jehovah, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; in the morning will I address myself to thee, and will look up. 4 For thou art not a •God that hath pleasure in wickedness; evil shall not sojourn with thee. 5 Insolent fools shall not stand before thine eyes; thou hatest all workers of iniquity. 6 Thou wilt destroy them that speak lies: Jehovah abhorreth a man of blood and deceit.

7 But as for me, in the greatness of thy loving-kindness will I enter thy house; I will bow down toward the temple of thy holiness in thy fear.

1 Open your ears to my words, O Lord. 

Consider my innermost thoughts. 

2 Pay attention to my cry for help, my king and my God, 

because I pray only to you. 

3 In the morning, O Lord, hear my voice. 

In the morning I lay my needs in front of you, 

and I wait. 

4 You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness. 

Evil will never be your guest. 

5 Those who brag cannot stand in your sight. 

You hate all troublemakers. 

6 You destroy those who tell lies. 

The Lord is disgusted with bloodthirsty and deceitful people. 

7 But I will enter your house because of your great mercy. 

Out of reverence for you, I will bow toward your holy temple.

consider my sighing.

2 Pay attention to the sound of my cry,

my King and my God,

for I pray to You.
