1. The transgression of the wicked says within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.
2. For he flatters himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity is found to be hateful.
3. The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he has ceased to be wise, and to do good.
4. He devises mischief upon his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he abhors not evil.
5. Your mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and your faithfulness reaches unto the clouds.
