1. For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD. The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, There is no fear of God before his eyes.
2. For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, that his iniquity shall not be found out and be hated.
3. The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise and to do good.
4. He deviseth iniquity upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.
5. Thy lovingkindness, O LORD, is in the heavens; thy faithfulness reacheth unto the skies.
