| 36.1 |
An oracle is within my heart about the disobedience of the wicked: “There is no fear of God before his eyes.” |
| 36.2 |
For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his sin. |
| 36.3 |
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good. |
| 36.4 |
He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He doesn’t abhor evil. |
| 36.5 |
Your loving kindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies. |
| 36.6 |
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Yahweh, you preserve man and animal. |
| 36.7 |
How precious is your loving kindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings. |
| 36.8 |
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures. |
| 36.9 |
For with you is the spring of life. In your light shall we see light. |
| 36.10 |
Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart. |
| 36.11 |
Don’t let the foot of pride come against me. Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away. |
| 36.12 |
There the workers of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise. |
