Commentary for Psalms 5:5

For You are not a God Who desires wickedness Therefore, I arrange my prayer to You in the morning (appears only in certain editions) and it befits You to destroy wickedness from the world.

For Thou art not a God that hast pleasure in wickedness: – Why should I watch for Thee? Because I know that Thou wilt have no pleasure in the wicked; if so, Thou wilt have no pleasure in my enemies, for they are evil men, and I am watching for Thee to save me from them; for Thou wilt have pleasure in me and not in them.

evil does not abide with You Heb. יגרך, it will not abide beside You.
