A Prayer for Protection[f]

5Listen to my words, O LORD, and hear my sighs.H5329H5155H4210H1732H238H561H3068H995H1901 2Listen to my cry for help, my God and king! I pray to you, O LORD;H7181H6963H7773H4428H430H6419 3you hear my voice in the morning; at sunrise I offer my prayer and wait for your answer.H6963H8085H1242H3068H1242H6186H6822 4You are not a God who is pleased with wrongdoing; you allow no evil in your presence.H410H2655H7562H7451H1481 5You cannot stand the sight of the proud; you hate all wicked people.H1984H3320H5869H8130H6466H205 6You destroy all liars and despise violent, deceitful people.H6H1696H3577H3068H8581H1818H4820H376 7But because of your great love I can come into your house; I can worship in your holy Temple and bow down to you in reverence.H935H1004H7230H2617H3374H7812H6944H1964 8LORD, I have so many enemies! Lead me to do your will; make your way plain for me to follow.H5148H3068H6666H8324H1870H3474H6440 9What my enemies say can never be trusted; they only want to destroy. Their words are flattering and smooth, but full of deadly deceit.H3559H6310H7130H1942H1627H6605H6913H2505H3956 10Condemn and punish them, O God; may their own plots cause their ruin. Drive them out of your presence because of their many sins and their rebellion against you.H816H430H5307H4156H5080H7230H6588H4784 11But all who find safety in you will rejoice; they can always sing for joy. Protect those who love you; because of you they are truly happy.H2620H8055H5769H7442H5526H157H8034H5970 12You bless those who obey you, LORD; your love protects them like a shield.H3068H1288H6662H7522H5849H6793
