1 (35-1) ^^ To the chief Musician. . ^^ David servant of the Lord (35-2) transgression of the wicked says within my heart, there is no fear of God before his eyes,
2 (35-3) For he flatters himself in his own eyes, finds his iniquity, to hate it;
3 (35-4), the words of his mouth - a lie and deceit; he does not want to be wise, to do good;
4 (35-5) on his bed contemplating lawlessness becomes the path of evil, does not shun evil.

5 (35-6) O Lord! Thy mercy to the skies, your truth to the clouds!
6 (35-7) Thy righteousness is as the mountains of God, and thy fate - a great abyss! Man and beast have stored thou, O Lord!
7 (35-8) How precious is Your mercy, O God! The sons of men in the shadow of thy wings will not worry:
8 (35-9) satisfied with the fatness of thy house, and from the stream of Thy sweets you watered them,
9 (35-10) For with thee is the fountain of life; in thy light shall we see light.
10 (35-11) Extend thy mercy to knowing you and your righteousness to the upright in heart,
eleven (35-12) but not step on my leg pride, and the wicked hand shall banish me:
12 (35-13) where the workers of iniquity fallen, cast down and can not get up.
