{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD.} The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.

The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the LORD all the day long.

By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.

But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.

And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.
