| New Living Translation | Holman Christian Standard Bible |
| 1Sin whispers to the wicked, deep within their hearts. They have no fear of God at all. | 1For the choir director. A psalm of David, the LORD's servant. An oracle within my heart concerning the transgression of the wicked person: There is no dread of God before his eyes, |
| 2In their blind conceit, they cannot see how wicked they really are. | 2for in his own eyes he flatters himself too much to discover and hate his sin. |
| 3Everything they say is crooked and deceitful. They refuse to act wisely or do good. | 3The words of his mouth are malicious and deceptive; he has stopped acting wisely and doing good. |
| 4They lie awake at night, hatching sinful plots. Their actions are never good. They make no attempt to turn from evil. | 4Even on his bed he makes malicious plans. He sets himself on a path that is not good and does not reject evil. |
| 5Your unfailing love, O LORD, is as vast as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds. | 5 LORD, Your faithful love reaches to heaven, Your faithfulness to the clouds. |
| 6Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the ocean depths. You care for people and animals alike, O LORD. | 6Your righteousness is like the highest mountains; Your judgments, like the deepest sea. LORD, You preserve man and beast. |
| 7How precious is your unfailing love, O God! All humanity finds shelter in the shadow of your wings. | 7God, Your faithful love is so valuable that people take refuge in the shadow of Your wings. |
| 8You feed them from the abundance of your own house, letting them drink from your river of delights. | 8They are filled from the abundance of Your house; You let them drink from Your refreshing stream, |
| 9For you are the fountain of life, the light by which we see. | 9for with You is life's fountain. In Your light we will see light. |
| 10Pour out your unfailing love on those who love you; give justice to those with honest hearts. | 10Spread Your faithful love over those who know You, and Your righteousness over the upright in heart. |
| 11Don’t let the proud trample me or the wicked push me around. | 11Do not let the foot of the arrogant man come near me or the hand of the wicked one drive me away. |
| 12Look! Those who do evil have fallen! They are thrown down, never to rise again. | 12There the evildoers fall; they have been thrown down and cannot rise. |
