My King and my God, listen to my voice.
    I am asking you to help me.
    I am praying to you!
Lord, every morning you listen to my voice.
At sunrise I will turn to you for help,
    and I will wait for you to answer.[a]
My God, you do not like anything that is bad.
    Evil people cannot live near you.

    and wait expectantly.(D)

    with you, evil people(E) are not welcome.
