Psalm 5:8-10
English Standard Version
8 (A)Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness
because of my enemies;
(B)make your way straight before me.
9 For there is no truth in their mouth;
their inmost self is (C)destruction;
(D)their throat is (E)an open grave;
they (F)flatter with their tongue.
10 (G)Make them bear their guilt, O God;
let them (H)fall by their own counsels;
because of the abundance of their transgressions cast them out,
for they have rebelled against you.
Psalm 5:8-10
New International Version
8 Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness(A)
because of my enemies—
make your way straight(B) before me.
9 Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
their heart is filled with malice.
Their throat is an open grave;(C)
with their tongues they tell lies.(D)
10 Declare them guilty, O God!
Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,(E)
for they have rebelled(F) against you.
Psalm 5:8-10
King James Version
8 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
9 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.
10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
