|
1 |
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.
