 1 I have a message from God in my heart concerning the sinfulness of the wicked:    There is no fear   of God before their eyes.    2 In their own eyes they flatter themselves too much to detect or hate their sin.    3 The words of their mouths   are wicked and deceitful;   they fail to act wisely   or do good.    4 Even on their beds they plot evil;   they commit themselves to a sinful course   and do not reject what is wrong.    5 Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness   to the skies.    6 Your righteousness   is like the highest mountains,   your justice like the great deep.   You, Lord, preserve both people and animals.    7 How priceless is your unfailing love, O God!   People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.    8 They feast on the abundance of your house;   you give them drink from your river   of delights.    9 For with you is the fountain of life;   in your light   we see light.  10 Continue your love   to those who know you,   your righteousness to the upright in heart.    11 May the foot of the proud not come against me, nor the hand of the wicked   drive me away.  12 See how the evildoers lie fallen— thrown down, not able to rise!  

From Wikipedia: 

The New International Version (NIV) is an English translation of the Bible first published in 1978 by Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society). The NIV was published to meet the need for a modern translation done by Bible scholars using the earliest, highest quality manuscripts available. Of equal importance was that the Bible be expressed in broadly understood modern English.

The NIV is published by Zondervan in the United States and Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. The NIV was updated in 1984 and 2011 and has become one of the most popular and best-selling modern translations.
