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.
