Psalms 5:10 (KJ21)
Destroy Thou them, O God! Let them fall by their own counsels. Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against Thee.

Psalms 5:10 (NAS)
Hold them guilty, O God; By their own devices let them fall! In the multitude of their transgressions thrust them out, For they are rebellious against Thee.

Psalms 5:10 (NIVUS)
Declare them guilty, O God! Let their intrigues be their downfall. Banish them for their many sins, for they have rebelled against you.

Psalms 5:10 (NLT)
O God, declare them guilty. Let them be caught in their own traps. Drive them away because of their many sins, for they rebel against you.

Elohim is one name of our Supreme God. He is great and mighty. The Almighty is strong and powerful. He is the Chief One, with absolute authority to rule.

There are some men who do not submit to His authority. They have their own devices and purposes to fulfill. In their determination to do what they want, these men will spend hours deliberating, seeking their own ways. If they cannot make adequate plans on their own, they then seek out other weak human beings for counsel and advice. They never think to turn to the Lord for His guidance. In this, they are setting themselves up for a fall. They will be cast down and lost as they follow their own ideas, which are always inferior to God's. They are on a desolate path that leads to destruction.

These men have chosen to live in rebellion and revolt against Adonai, the Most High. They are constantly in sin and transgression, for they have broken away from His just authority. Their trespasses against God are many and they are often offended at others. Because of this they will be banished and cast out from God's presence. He will chase and drive them away with force, for they have provoked the Lord in their bitterness. Their disobedience and resistance will bring them grief and punishment, for they are guilty.
