Berean Standard Bible
1A revelation is within my heart about the disobedience of the wicked: There is no fear of God before his eyes.
An oracle is in my heart regarding the transgression of the wicked man: There is no fear of God before his eyes.
2For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his sin.
For his eyes are too full of conceit to detect or hate his own sin.
3The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
The words of his mouth are wicked and deceitful; he has ceased to be wise and well-doing.
4He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He doesn’t abhor evil.
Even on his bed he plots wickedness; he sets himself on a path that is not good; he fails to reject evil.
5Your loving kindness, LORD, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Your loving devotion, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, Your faithfulness to the clouds.
6Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. LORD, you preserve man and animal.
Your righteousness is like the highest mountains; Your judgments are like the deepest sea. O LORD, You preserve man and beast.
7How precious is your loving kindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.
How precious is Your loving devotion, O God, that the children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings!
8They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
They feast on the abundance of Your house, and You give them drink from Your river of delights.
9For with you is the spring of life. In your light we will see light.
For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light.
10Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
Extend Your loving devotion to those who know You, and Your righteousness to the upright in heart.
11Don’t let the foot of pride come against me. Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
Let not the foot of the proud come against me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12There the workers of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
There the evildoers lie fallen, thrown down and unable to rise.
