The Message Help
5A David psalm. Listen, GOD! Please, pay attention! Can you make sense of these ramblings,H5329H5155H4210H1732H238H561H3068H995H1901
2my groans and cries? King-God, I need your help.H7181H6963H7773H4428H430H6419
3Every morning you'll hear me at it again. Every morning I lay out the pieces of my life on your altar and watch for fire to descend.H6963H8085H1242H3068H1242H6186H6822
4You don't socialize with Wicked, or invite Evil over as your houseguest.H410H2655H7562H7451H1481
5Hot-Air-Boaster collapses in front of you; you shake your head over Mischief-Maker.H1984H3320H5869H8130H6466H205
6GOD destroys Lie-Speaker; Blood-Thirsty and Truth-Bender disgust you.H6H1696H3577H3068H8581H1818H4820H376
7And here I am, your invited guest— it's incredible! I enter your house; here I am, prostrate in your inner sanctum,H935H1004H7230H2617H3374H7812H6944H1964
8Waiting for directions to get me safely through enemy lines.H5148H3068H6666H8324H1870H3474H6440
9Every word they speak is a land mine; their lungs breathe out poison gas. Their throats are gaping graves, their tongues slick as mudslides.H3559H6310H7130H1942H1627H6605H6913H2505H3956
10Pile on the guilt, God! Let their so-called wisdom wreck them. Kick them out! They've had their chance.H816H430H5307H4156H5080H7230H6588H4784
11But you'll welcome us with open arms when we run for cover to you. Let the party last all night! Stand guard over our celebration.H2620H8055H5769H7442H5526H157H8034H5970
12You are famous, GOD, for welcoming God-seekers, for decking us out in delight.H3068H1288H6662H7522H5849H6793
