1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD. The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, There is no fear of God before his eyes. 2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, that his iniquity shall not be found out and be hated. 3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise and to do good. 4 He deviseth iniquity upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil. 5 Thy lovingkindness, O LORD, is in the heavens; thy faithfulness reacheth unto the skies. 6 Thy righteousness is like the mountains of God; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast. 7 How precious is thy lovingkindness, O God! and the children of men take refuge under the shadow of thy wings. 8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures. 9 For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light. Psalms 36:1-9, English Revised Version. Public domain.
