| 1 | To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD. An oracle within my heart concerning the transgression of the wicked: There is no fear of God before his eyes. | |
| 2 | For he flatters himself in his own eyes, When he finds out his iniquity and when he hates. | |
| 3 | The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit; He has ceased to be wise and to do good. | |
| 4 | He devises wickedness on his bed; He sets himself in a way that is not good; He does not abhor evil. | |
| 5 | Your mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. | |
| 6 | Your righteousness is like the great mountains; Your judgments are a great deep; O LORD, You preserve man and beast. | |
| 7 | How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings. | |
| 8 | They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house, And You give them drink from the river of Your pleasures. | |
| 9 | For with You is the fountain of life; In Your light we see light. | |
| 10 | Oh, continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You, And Your righteousness to the upright in heart. | |
| 11 | Let not the foot of pride come against me, And let not the hand of the wicked drive me away. | |
| 12 | There the workers of iniquity have fallen; They have been cast down and are not able to rise. | |
