KJV · Textus Receptus
[To the chiefMusician, A Psalm ofDavid theservant of theLORD.] Thetransgression of thewickedsaithwithin myheart, that there is nofear ofGod before his eyes.
2 For heflattereth himself in his owneyes, until hisiniquity befound to be hateful.
3 Thewords of hismouth areiniquity anddeceit: he hath leftoff to bewise, and to do good.
4 Hedevisethmischief upon hisbed; hesetteth himself in away that is notgood; heabhorreth not evil.
5 Thymercy, OLORD, is in theheavens; and thyfaithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.
6 Thyrighteousness is like thegreatmountains; thyjudgments are agreatdeep: OLORD, thoupreservestman and beast.
7 Howexcellent is thylovingkindness, OGod! therefore thechildren ofmen put theirtrust under theshadow of thy wings.
8 They shall be abundantlysatisfied with thefatness of thyhouse; and thou shalt make themdrink of theriver of thy pleasures.
9 For with thee is thefountain oflife: in thylight shall wesee light.
10 Ocontinue thylovingkindness unto them thatknow thee; and thyrighteousness to theupright in heart.
11 Let not thefoot ofpridecome against me, and let not thehand of thewicked remove me.
12 There are theworkers ofiniquityfallen: they are castdown, and shall not beable to rise.
