Psalms 5:7 — Meaning and Application

The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity. {in...: Heb. before thine eyes}

Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man. {bloody...: Heb. man of bloods and deceit}

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. {thy holy...: Heb. the temple of thy holiness}

Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. {mine...: Heb. those which observe me}

For {there is} no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part {is} very wickedness; their throat {is} an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue. {faithfulness: or, stedfastness} {their mouth: Heb. his mouth, that is, the mouth of any of them} {very...: Heb. wickednesses}
