Psalms 36

1For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David the servant of Yehovah. The transgression of the wicked says within my heart, There is no fear of God before his eyes.

2For he flatters himself in his own eyes, That his iniquity will not be found out and be hated.

3The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: He has ceased to be wise and to do good.

4He devises iniquity upon his bed; He sets himself in a way that is not good; He does not abhor evil.

5Your lovingkindness, O Yehovah, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

6Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; Your judgments are a great deep: O Yehovah, you preserve man and beast.

7How precious is your lovingkindness, O God! And the children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.

8They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of your house; And you will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.

9For with you is the fountain of life: In your light shall we see light.

10Oh continue your lovingkindness to those who know you, And your righteousness to the upright in heart.

11Do not let the foot of pride come against me, And do not let the hand of the wicked drive me away.

12There the workers of iniquity have fallen: They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
