1. | <To the chief music-maker. Of the servant of the Lord. Of David.> The sin of the evil-doer says in his heart, There is no fear of the Lord before his eyes. |
2. | For he takes comfort in the thought that his sin will not be uncovered and hated. |
3. | In the words of his mouth are evil and deceit; he has given up being wise and doing good. |
4. | He gives thought to evil on his bed; he takes a way which is not good; he is not a hater of evil. |
5. | Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens, and your strong purpose is as high as the clouds. |
6. | Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judging is like the great deep; O Lord, you give life to man and beast. |
7. | How good is your loving mercy, O God! the children of men take cover under the shade of your wings. |
8. | The delights of your house will be showered on them; you will give them drink from the river of your pleasures. |
9. | For with you is the fountain of life: in your light we will see light. |
10. | O let there be no end to your loving mercy to those who have knowledge of you, or of your righteousness to the upright in heart. |
11. | Let not the foot of pride come against me, or the hand of the evil-doers put me out of my place. |
12. | There the workers of evil have come down: they have been made low, and will not be lifted up. |
