For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD.

1The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, There is no fear ofGodיְהוָ֬הYah.wehH3068before his eyes.

2For he flatterethhimselfלִבִּ֑יli.BiH3820in hisownבְּעֵינָ֑יוbe.'ei.NavH5869eyesעֵינָֽיו׃'ei.NavH5869, that his iniquity shallnotH369befoundH369outלָ֭רָשָׁעLa.ra.sho'H7563and be hated.

5Thy lovingkindness, O LORD, is in the heavens; thy faithfulness reacheth unto theskiesH5921.

6Thy righteousness is like the mountains ofGodיְ֭הוָהYah.wehH3068; thy judgments are a great deep: OLORDיְהוָֽה׃Yah.wehH3068, thou preservest man and beast.

7How precious is thy lovingkindness, OGodאֵ֗ל'ElH410! and the children ofmenH120take refuge under the shadow of thy wings.

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 thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.

10O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
