Psalm 5 (DRB) — Stand-To at First Light

David wakes up with enemies. That is the situation of the psalm. Men are lying about him and he knows it — "Their throat is an open sepulchre" (Ps 5:11, DRB), a grave left standing open, and you can smell it on every word they say.

Day numbers here follow The Procession. The Scriptorium ships a second plan, and the same day number carries different chapters there — the app always shows the day of the plan you are actually walking.

How the day works

The Scripture itself is free every day of the year. Where the commentary has been written it comes at three depths. The Read is ninety seconds and free — finishing there counts as finishing the day, with no asterisk. The Study and Ad Fontes go to the context, the Fathers, and the sources in full, inside the Brotherhood Pass at $8.99 a month. The answer to every objection stays free, always.
