1 There is a voice of rebellion deep in the heart | of the | wicked; *
there is no fear of | God be- | fore his | eyes.
2 He flatters himself in | his own | eyes *
that his hateful sin | will not | be found | out.
3 The words of his mouth are wicked and | deceit- | ful; *
he has left off acting wise- | ly and | doing | good.
4 He thinks up wickedness upon his bed
and has set himself in | no good | way; *
he does not abhor | that which | is e- | vil.
5 Your love, O LORD, reaches to | the hea- | vens, *
and your faith- | fulness | to the | clouds.
6 Your righteousness is like the strong mountains,
your justice like | the great | deep; *
you save both | man and | beast, O | LORD.
7 How priceless is your | love, O | God! *
your people take refuge under the | shadow | of your | wings.
8 They feast upon the abundance | of your | house; *
you give them drink from the | river of | your de- | lights.
9 For with you is the | well of | life, *
and in | your light | we see | light.
10 Continue your loving-kindness to those | who know | you, *
and your favor to those | who are | true of | heart.
11 Let not the foot of the proud | come near | me, *
nor the hand of the | wicked | push me | aside.
12 See how they are fallen, those who work | wicked- | ness! *
they are cast down and shall | not be | able to | rise.
