New Testament

Psalms 5:3-8 Modern English Version (MEV)

3. O Lord, in the morning You will hear my voice;in the morning I will direct my prayer to You,and I will watch expectantly.

4. For You are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness,nor will evil dwell with You.

5. Those who boast will not stand in Your sight;You hate all workers of iniquity.

6. You will destroy those who speak lies;the Lord abhorsthe bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

7. But as for me, in the abundance of Your mercyI will enter Your house;in fear of You I will worshipat Your holy temple.

8. Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousnessbecause of my enemies;make Your way straight before me.
