1 An oracle that came to me about the transgressions of the wicked: There is no fear of God before his eyes. Transgression speaks to the wicked deep in his heart; there is no fear of God before his eyes. For the director of music. Of David the servant of the LORD. I have a message from God in my heart concerning the sinfulness of the wicked: There is no fear of God before their eyes.
2 He flatters himself too much to discover his transgression and hate it. For he flatters himself in his own eyes that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated. In their own eyes they flatter themselves too much to detect or hate their sin.
3 The words from his mouth are vain and deceptive. He has abandoned behaving wisely and doing good. The words of his mouth are trouble and deceit; he has ceased to act wisely and do good. The words of their mouths are wicked and deceitful; they fail to act wisely or do good.
4 He devises iniquity on his bed and is determined to follow a path that is not good. He does not resist evil. He plots trouble while on his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he does not reject evil. Even on their beds they plot evil; they commit themselves to a sinful course and do not reject what is wrong.
5 Your gracious love, LORD, reaches to the heavens; your truth extends to the skies. Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds. Your love, LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.
6 Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your justice is like the great depths of the sea. You deliver both people and animals, LORD. Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judgments are like the great deep; man and beast you save, O LORD. Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, LORD, preserve both people and animals.
7 How precious is your gracious love, God! The children of men take refuge in the shadow of your wings. How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings. How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
8 They are refreshed from the abundance of your house; You cause them to drink from the river of your pleasures. They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights. They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights.
9 For with you is a fountain of life, and in your light we will see light. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.
10 Send forth your gracious love to those who know you, and your righteousness to those who are upright in heart. Oh, continue your steadfast love to those who know you, and your righteousness to the upright of heart! Continue your love to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 Do not let the foot of the proud crush me; and do not let the hand of the wicked dissuade me. Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away. May the foot of the proud not come against me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12 There, those who do evil have fallen; They have been thrown down, and they cannot get up. There the evildoers lie fallen; they are thrust down, unable to rise. See how the evildoers lie fallen— thrown down, not able to rise!
