8 Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousnessbecause of my enemies;make Your way straight before me.
9 For there is no uprightness in their mouth;destruction is in their midst;their throat is an open tomb;they flatter with their tongue.
10 Declare them guilty, O God;may they fall by their own counsels;cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions,for they have rebelled against You.
11 But may all those who seek refuge in You rejoice;may they ever shout for joy,because You defend them;may those who love Your name be joyful in You.
12 For You, Lord, will bless the righteous;You surround him with favor like a shield.
