Wickedness of Humanity and Goodness of God.

^1 (F1)Wrongdoing speaks to the ungodly within ^(F2)his heart;
There is ^(C1)no fear of God before his eyes.

² For it ^(C1)flatters him in his own eyes
Concerning the discovery of his wrongful deed and the hatred of it.

³ The ^(C1)words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit;
He has ^(C2)ceased to ^(F1)be wise and to do good.

⁴ He ^(C1)plans wickedness on his bed;
He sets himself on a ^(C2)path that is not good;
He ^(C3)does not reject evil.

⁵ Your ^(C1)mercy, LORD, ^(F1)extends to the heavens,
Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

⁶ Your ^(C1)righteousness is like the ^(F1)mountains of God;
Your ^(C2)judgments are like the great deep.
LORD, You ^(F2)(C3)protect mankind and animals.

⁷ How ^(C1)precious is Your mercy, God!
And the sons of mankind ^(C2)take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.

⁸ They ^(C1)drink their fill of the ^(F1)abundance of Your house;
And You allow them to drink from the ^(C2)river of Your delights.

⁹ For the ^(C1)fountain of life is with You;
In Your light we see light.

¹⁰ Prolong Your mercy to ^(C1)those who know You,
And Your ^(C2)righteousness to the upright of heart.

¹¹ May the foot of pride not come upon me,
And may the hand of the wicked not drive me away.

¹² Those who do injustice have fallen there;
They have been thrust down and ^(C1)cannot rise.
