Tahalym (Psalm) — 5

A Prayer for Guidance

1 Give ear to my words, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, Consider my meditation.

2 Give attention to my cry for help, My 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH, For I only pray to You .

3 My voice You will hear in the morning, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH; In the morning I will direct it to You, And I will look up.

4 For You are not an 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH who takes pleasure in wickedness, Nor shall evil dwell with You.

5 The boastful shall not stand in Your sight; You hate all workers of iniquity.

6 You shall destroy those who speak falsehood; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

7 But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; In fear of You I will worship toward Your Qadash temple.

8 Lead me, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; Make Your way straight before my face.

9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; Their inward part is destruction; Their throat is an open tomb; They flatter with their tongue.

10 Pronounce them guilty, O 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH! Let them fall by their own counsels; Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions, For they have rebelled against You.

11 But let all those who put their trust in You rejoice; Let them always shout for joy, because You defend them; Let those who love Your Name Be joyful in You.

12 For You, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, will Barak the righteous; With favor You will surround him as with a shield.
