For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David the servant of Jehovah.
{Or, Transgression saith to the wicked}The transgression of the wicked {Or, uttereth its oracle}saith within my heart,
There is no fear of God before his eyes.
For {Or, it (or, he) flattereth him in his eyes}he flattereth himself in his own eyes,
{Or, Until his iniquity be found and be hated Hebrew: Concerning the finding out of his iniquity and hating it.}That his iniquity will not be found out and be hated.
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit:
He hath ceased to be wise and to do good.
He deviseth iniquity upon his bed;
He setteth himself in a way that is not good;
He abhorreth not evil.
Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, is in the heavens;
Thy faithfulness reacheth unto the skies.
Thy righteousness is like the mountains of God;
Thy judgments are a great deep:
O Jehovah, thou preservest man and beast.
How precious is thy lovingkindness, O God!
And the children of men take refuge under the shadow of thy wings.
They shall be {Hebrew: watered.}abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house;
And thou wilt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
For with thee is the fountain of life:
In thy light shall we see light.
Oh continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee,
And thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
Let not the foot of pride come against me,
And let not the hand of the wicked drive me away.
There are the workers of iniquity fallen:
They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.

For the Chief Musician. Maschil of David; when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Ahimelech.Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man?The lovingkindness of God endureth continually.
For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever;Thy faithfulness wilt thou establish in the very heavens.
For thy lovingkindness is great unto the heavens,And thy truth unto the skies.
To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning,And thy faithfulness every night,
For as the heavens are high above the earth,So great is his lovingkindness toward them that fear him.
For Jehovah is good; his lovingkindness endureth for ever,And his faithfulness unto all generations.
For thy lovingkindness is great above the heavens;And thy truth reacheth unto the skies.
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith Jehovah.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us:
which we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and stedfast and entering into that which is within the veil;
whither as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
