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.
