1. Give ear unto my words, O Lord,my meditation weigh.
2. Hear my loud cry, my King, my God;for I to thee will pray.
3. Lord, thou shalt early hear my voice:I early will directMy pray'r to thee; and, looking up,an answer will expect.
4. For thou art not a God that dothin wickedness delight;Neither shall evil dwell with thee,
5. Nor fools stand in thy sight.All that ill-doers are thou hat'st;
