in the morning I plead my case to you and watch.

4 Ps 11.5; 92.15 For you are not a God who delights in wickedness;

evil will not sojourn with you.

5 Ps 1.5; 11.5; 73.3 The boastful will not stand before your eyes;

because of my enemies;

make your way straight before me.

their hearts are destruction;

their throats are open graves;

they flatter with their tongues.

10 Ps 9.16; 107.10, 11; Lam 1.5 Make them bear their guilt, O God;

11 Ps 2.12; 69.36; Isa 65.13; Zech 9.15 But let all who take refuge in you rejoice;

Spread your protection over them,

so that those who love your name may exult in you.

12 Ps 32.7, 10; 112.2 For you bless the righteous, O Lord;

you cover them with favor as with a shield.
