Psalm 5:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ Because of your great ·love [loyalty; covenant love],
    I ·can [or will] come into your ·Temple [^Lhouse].
Because I ·fear you [hold you in awe],
    I can ·worship [bow down] ·in [or toward] your holy Temple.
⁸ Lord, since I have many enemies,
    ·show me the right thing to do [^Llead/guide me in your righteousness].
·Show me clearly how you want me to live [^LMake your way straight before me].

⁹ My enemies’ mouths do not tell the truth;
    ·in their hearts they want to destroy others [^Ltheir innards are destruction].
Their throats are like open graves [Rom. 3:13];
    they use their tongues for ·telling lies [flattery].
