1An oracle that came to me about the transgressions of the wicked: There is no fear of God before his eyes. | 1To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD. The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes. |
2He flatters himself too much to discover his transgression and hate it. | 2For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful. |
3The words from his mouth are vain and deceptive. He has abandoned behaving wisely and doing good. | 3The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good. |
4He devises iniquity on his bed and is determined to follow a path that is not good. He does not resist evil. | 4He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil. |
5Your gracious love, LORD, reaches to the heavens; your truth extends to the skies. | 5Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds. |
6Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your justice is like the great depths of the sea. You deliver both people and animals, LORD. | 6Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast. |
7How precious is your gracious love, God! The children of men take refuge in the shadow of your wings. | 7How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings. |
8They are refreshed from the abundance of your house; You cause them to drink from the river of your pleasures. | 8They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures. |
9For with you is a fountain of life, and in your light we will see light. | 9For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light. |
10Send forth your gracious love to those who know you, and your righteousness to those who are upright in heart. | 10O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart. |
11Do not let the foot of the proud crush me; and do not let the hand of the wicked dissuade me. | 11Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me. |
12There, those who do evil have fallen; They have been thrown down, and they cannot get up. | 12There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise. |
