Following is a translation of Psalm 5 into song in Kom, by the Kom Psalms That Sing team. You can find the translation into English below the video.
1. Hear my voice Oh Lord
Look closely at these tears in my eyes
2. Hear my cry and help me
You are my God
You are my king
This is my prayer to you
3. At daybreak Lord,
You hear my voice
When I wake up early in the morning,
I prepare a sacrifice to you
And wait to hear from you
4. You are not pleased with evil
You do not like to see an evil person
5. You do not like those who work for you to be proud
You do not like people who do wrong things
6. When a person tells lies you just finish him completely
You do not want to see anyone who loves to kill people
You do not like to see people who deceive people
7. But I can come into your house
Because of your covenant love
And worship you holding you in awe
8. I have many enemies Lord
Direct me to rule again according to your will
Show me your smooth ways
9. When they open their mouths, only lies come out
They are always planning to destroy
Their mouths are like graves that are not covered
Even though their talk is always sweet
10. Judge them Oh God and punish them Cause them to fall in the very traps they have set
They have rebelled for too long
Banish them from this country
11. But cause that all people
Who have escaped to hide under your wings be happy
Cause them to always sing and rejoice
Hide them under your wings
So that those who love you can be proud of you
12. Truly Lord, you bless the righteous
Your love is like a shield to them
