Take courage and be a man. 3Observe the requirements of the Lord your God, and follow all his ways. 

My enemies cannot speak a truthful word. Their deepest desire is to destroy others. Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave. Their tongues are filled with flattery.5:9 Greek version reads with lies. Compare Rom 3:13. 10O God, declare them guilty. Let them be caught in their own traps. Drive them away because of their many sins, for they have rebelled against you.

But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them sing joyful praises forever. Spread your protection over them, that all who love your name may be filled with joy. 12For you bless the godly, O Lord; you surround them with your shield of love.

Lord God my Father,

Direct me in shaping courage as you desire it for me. Give me discernment to separate your Truth from the noise of the world. Allow me to live in constant connection with you without distraction. May I bring you nothing less than worship.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
