    You destroy those who tell lies.
The Lord hates murderers,
    and those who deceive others.[a]
But I will come into your house,
    because of your faithful love.
I will bend low in your holy temple,
    and I will worship you.

My enemies are waiting to attack me.
    Show the right way clearly to me,
    so that I do not go the wrong way.

Lead me, Lord, in your righteousness(E)
    because of my enemies—
    make your way straight(F) before me.
