King James Version with Apocrypha
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Give ear to my words, O LORD , consider my meditation.
1Unto the end, for her that obtaineth the inheritance. A psalm of David.
2Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.
2Give ear, O Lord, to my words, understand my cry.
3My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD ; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
3Hearken to the voice of my prayer, O my King and my God.
4For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
4For to thee will I pray: O Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear my voice.
5The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
5In the morning I will stand before thee, and will see: because thou art not a God that willest iniquity.
6Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
6Neither shall the wicked dwell near thee: nor shall the unjust abide before thy eyes.
7But 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.
7Thou hatest all the workers of iniquity: Thou wilt destroy all that speak a lie. The bloody and the deceitful man the Lord will abhor.
8Lead me, O LORD , in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
8But as for me in the multitude of thy mercy, I will come into thy house; I will worship towards thy holy temple, in thy fear.
9For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
9Conduct me, O Lord, in thy justice: because of my enemies, direct my way in thy sight.
10Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
10For there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain.
11But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
11Their throat is an open sepulchre: they dealt deceitfully with their tongues: judge them, O God. Let them fall from their devices: according to the multitude of their wickedness cast them out: for they have provoked thee, O Lord.
12For thou, LORD , wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
12But let all them be glad that hope in thee: they shall rejoice for ever, and thou shalt dwell in them. And all they that love thy name shall glory in thee:
