Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly. > **4** O God, you take no pleasure in wickedness; you cannot tolerate the sins of the wicked. > **5** Therefore, the proud may not stand in your presence, for you hate all who do evil. > **6** You will destroy those who tell lies. The LORD detests murderers and deceivers. > **7** Because of your unfailing love, I can enter your house; I will worship at your Temple with deepest awe. > **8** Lead me in the right path, O LORD, or my enemies will conquer me. Make your way plain for me to follow. > **9** My enemies cannot speak a truthful word. Their deepest desire is to destroy others. Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave. Their tongues are filled with flattery. > **10** O God, declare them guilty. Let them be caught in their own traps. Drive them away because of their many sins, for they have rebelled against you. > **11** But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them sing joyful praises forever. Spread your protection over them, that all who love your name may be filled with joy. > **12** For you bless the godly, O LORD; you surround them with your shield of love. ## ==📖 Verse-by-Verse Commentary== - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write something for each verse Each verse is important. %% ## 🤔 Interesting Facts / Historical and Cultural Insights 1.
