He deviseth iniquity upon his bed; He setteth himself in a way that is not good; He abhorreth not evil.

Thy righteousness is like the mountains of God; Thy judgments are a great deep: O Jehovah, thou preservest man and beast.

They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; And thou wilt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

Oh continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee, And thy righteousness to the upright in heart.

There are the workers of iniquity fallen: They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.

For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb.

Delight thyself also in Jehovah; And he will give thee the desires of thy heart.

And he will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, And thy justice as the noon-day.

Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: Fret not thyself, [it tendeth] only to evil-doing.

For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: Yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and he shall not be.

The wicked plotteth against the just, And gnasheth upon him with his teeth.

The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, To cast down the poor and needy, To slay such as are upright in the way.

Better is a little that the righteous hath Than the abundance of many wicked.

Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect; And their inheritance shall be for ever.

But the wicked shall perish, And the enemies of Jehovah shall be as the fat of lambs: They shall consume; in smoke shall they consume away.

For such as are blessed of him shall inherit the land; And they that are cursed of him shall be cut off.

Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For Jehovah upholdeth him with his hand.

All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; And his seed is blessed.

For Jehovah loveth justice, And forsaketh not his saints; They are preserved for ever: But the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.

The mouth of the righteous talketh of wisdom, And his tongue speaketh justice.

The wicked watcheth the righteous, And seeketh to slay him.

Wait for Jehovah, and keep his way, And he will exalt thee to inherit the land: When the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.

But one passed by, and, lo, he was not: Yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.

As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together; The end of the wicked shall be cut off.
