1 THE transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.
2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.
3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.
4 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.
5 Thy mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.
6 Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O Lord, thou preservest man and beast.
7 How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust 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.
10 O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.
12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.

1To the chiefe musician, A Psalme of Dauid, the seruant of the Lord. The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no feare of God before his eyes.

2For he flatterech himselfe in his owne eyes, vntill his iniquitie be found to be hatefull.

3The words of his mouth are iniquitie and deceit: he hath left off to bee wise, and to doe good.

4Hee deuiseth mischiefe vpon his bed, he setteth himselfe in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not euill.

5Thy mercie (O Lord) is in the heauens; and thy faithfulnesse reacheth vnto the cloudes.

6Thy righteousnesse is like the great mountaines; thy iudgements are a great deepe; O Lord, thou preseruest man and beast.

7How excellent is thy louing kindnesse, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust vnder the shadowe of thy wings.

8They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatnesse of thy house: and thou shalt make them drinke of the riuer of thy pleasures.

9For with thee is the fountaine of life: in thy light shall we see light.

10O continue thy louing kindnesse vnto them that know thee; and thy righteousnesse to the vpright in heart.

11Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remoue me.

12There are the workers of iniquitie fallen: they are cast downe, and shal not be able to rise.

XII == Ps 1:5

1 For the leader. Of David, the servant of the LORD.

2 Sin directs the heart of the wicked man; his eyes are closed to the fear of God.

3 For he lives with the delusion: his guilt will not be known and hated.

4 Empty and false are the words of his mouth; he has ceased to be wise and do good.

5 On his bed he hatches plots; he sets out on a wicked way; he does not reject evil.

6 LORD, your mercy reaches to heaven; your fidelity, to the clouds.

7 Your justice is like the highest mountains; your judgments, like the mighty deep; human being and beast you sustain, LORD.

8 How precious is your mercy, O God! The children of Adam take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

9 They feast on the rich food of your house; from your delightful stream you give them drink.

10 For with you is the fountain of life, and in your light we see light.

11 Show mercy on those who know you, your just defense to the upright of heart.

12 Do not let the foot of the proud overtake me, nor the hand of the wicked disturb me.

13 There make the evildoers fall; thrust them down, unable to rise.

This Psalm of David has three principle divisions.

V 1-4 is a revelation concerning the nature of unbelievers.

V 5-9 show appreciation for the nature of God, note verse 9.

V 10-12 is a prayer for the continuation of God’s kindness and that David’s  integrity would not be destroyed by pride.
