8 Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness,
because of my enemies; ♦︎
make your way straight before my face.
9 For there is no truth in their mouth,
in their heart is destruction, ♦︎
their throat is an open sepulchre,
and they flatter with their tongue.
10 Punish them, O God; ♦︎
let them fall through their own devices.
11 Because of their many transgressions cast them out, ♦︎
for they have rebelled against you.
12 But let all who take refuge in you be glad; ♦︎
let them sing out their joy for ever.
13 You will shelter them, ♦︎
so that those who love your name may exult in you.
14 For you, O Lord, will bless the righteous; ♦︎
and with your favour you will defend them as with a shield.
