## Lead Me in Your Righteousness 

###### 1
Give ear to my words, O Yahweh, Consider my meditation. 

###### 2
Give heed to the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to You I pray. 

###### 3
O Yahweh, in the morning, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will order _my_ _prayer_ to You and _eagerly_ watch. 

###### 4
For You are not a God who delights in wickedness; Evil does not sojourn with You. 

###### 5
The boastful shall not stand before Your eyes; You hate all workers of iniquity. 

###### 6
You destroy those who speak falsehood; Yahweh abhors the man of bloodshed and deceit. 

###### 7
But as for me, in the abundance of Your lovingkindness I will enter Your house, At Your holy temple I will worship in fear of You. 

###### 8
O Yahweh, lead me in Your righteousness because of my foes; Make Your way straight before me. 

###### 9
There is nothing reliable in their mouth; Their inward part is destruction _itself_. Their throat is an open grave; They flatter with their tongue. 

###### 10
Hold them guilty, O God; By their own devices let them fall! In the abundance of their transgressions thrust them out, For they are rebellious against You. 

###### 11
But let all who take refuge in You be glad, Let them ever sing for joy; And may You shelter them, That those who love Your name may exult in You. 

###### 12
For it is You who blesses the righteous one, O Yahweh, You surround him with favor as with a large shield.
