| Chapter 35 |
1 | Unto the end, for the servant of God, David himself. |
2 | The unjust hath said within himself, that he would sin : there is no fear of God before his eyes. |
3 | For in his sight he hath done deceitfully, that his iniquity may be found unto hatred. |
4 | The words of his mouth are iniquity and guile : he would not understand that he might do well. |
5 | He hath devised iniquity on his bed, he hath set himself on every way that is not good : but evil he hath not hated. |
6 | O Lord, thy mercy is in heaven, and thy truth reacheth, even to the clouds. |
7 | Thy justice is as the mountains of God, thy judgments are a great deep. Men and beasts thou wilt preserve, O Lord : |
8 | O how hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God! But the children of men shall put their trust under the covert of thy wings. |
9 | They shall be inebriated with the plenty of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the torrent of thy pleasure. |
10 | For with thee is the fountain of life; and in thy light we shall see light. |
11 | Extend thy mercy to them that know thee, and thy justice to them that are right in heart. |
12 | Let not the foot of pride come to me, and let not the hand of the sinner move me. |
13 | There the workers of iniquity are fallen, they are cast out, and could not stand. |
