Verba mea auribus. A prayer to God against the iniquities of men.

 1 Unto the end, for her that obtaineth the inheritance. A psalm of David.  2 Give ear, O Lord, to my words, understand my cry.  3 Hearken to the voice of my prayer, O my King and my God.  4 For to thee will I pray: O Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear my voice.  5 In the morning I will stand before thee, and will see: because thou art not a God that willest iniquity.

[1] "For her that obtaineth the inheritance": That is, for the church of Christ.

 6 Neither shall the wicked dwell near thee: nor shall the unjust abide before thy eyes.  7 Thou hatest all the workers of iniquity: Thou wilt destroy all that speak a lie. The bloody and the deceitful man the Lord will abhor.  8 But as for me in the multitude of thy mercy, I will come into thy house; I will worship towards thy holy temple, in thy fear.  9 Conduct me, O Lord, in thy justice: because of my enemies, direct my way in thy sight.  10 For there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain.

 11 Their throat is an open sepulchre: they dealt deceitfully with their tongues: judge them, O God. Let them fall from their devices: according to the multitude of their wickedness cast them out: for they have provoked thee, O Lord.  12 But let all them be glad that hope in thee: they shall rejoice for ever, and thou shalt dwell in them. And all they that love thy name shall glory in thee:  13 For thou wilt bless the just. O Lord, thou hast crowned us, as with a shield of thy good will.
