PRAYER PSALM 5

PRAYER PSALM 5

Baruch Ata YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.
(Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

Give ear to my words, YHVH - Elohey Yisrael (God of Israel); consider my meditation, give heed to the voice of my cry, You are Elohi (my God), Mal’kee (my King), only to You I will pray.

My voice You shall hear in the morning, YHVH - El Cha’ya’i (my Life); in the morning I will direct it to You, and I will look up. For You are not an Elohim who takes pleasure in wickedness, nor shall evil dwell with You. The boastful shall not stand in Your sight; You hate all workers of iniquity.

You shall destroy those who speak falsehood, YHVH - Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov (God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob). You abhor the bloodthirsty and deceitful man, for there is no faithfulness in their mouth, their inward part is destruction, their throat is an open tomb, they flatter with their tongue. Pronounce them guilty, O El Shofet (Judge)! Let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against You.

But as for me, I will come into Your house, the house of Ya’acov. In the multitude of Your mercy, and in awe of You, I will worship in Your kadosh (holy/set-apart) temple.

Lead me, YHVH - Ro’eh Yisrael (Shepherd of Israel), in Your righteousness and because of my enemies, make Your way straight before my face.

Avi, El Sim’cha’tee (my Joy), I will rejoice when I put my trust in You; I will even shout for joy because You defend me. Let all of us who love Your name be joyful in You. For You, YHVH - Tzid’kee (my Righteousness), and M’gee’nee (my Protector/Shield), will bless the righteous with favor and You will surround us as a shield.

Hallelu-Yah!!! For You YHVH are Elohim. You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov. Avi the Almighty reigns!
