Psalm 5:6-12 (NIV)

6You destroy those who tell lies; bloodthirsty and deceitful men the Lord abhors.

7But I, by your great mercy, will come into your house; in reverence will I bow down toward your holy temple.

8Lead me, O Lord , in your righteousness because of my enemies- make straight your way before me.

9Not a word from their mouth can be trusted; their heart is filled with destruction. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongue they speak deceit.

10Declare them guilty, O God! Let their intrigues be their downfall. Banish them for their many sins, for they have rebelled against you.

11But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.

12For surely, O Lord , you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.

 

Proverbs 2:1-5 (ESV)

1 My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you,
 
2 turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding—
 
3 indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding,
 
4 and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure,
 
5 then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God.
