Psalms 36

LEB(i) 1 For the music director. Of David, the servant of Yahweh.*
An oracle: the wicked has rebellion in the midst of his* heart. There is no fear of God before his eyes. 2 For he flatters himself in his eyes, hating to detect his iniquity.* 3 The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit. He has ceased to have insight and to do good. 4 He plans sin on his bed. He puts himself on a way that is not good. He does not reject evil. 5 O Yahweh, your loyal love extends into the heavens, your faithfulness unto the clouds. 6 Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains,* your judgments like the great deep. You save man and beast, O Yahweh. 7 How precious is your loyal love, O God, and the children of humankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings. 8 They are refreshed with the fullness* of your house,* and you give them drink from the river of your delights. 9 For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light. 10 Prolong your loyal love to those who know you, and your righteousness to the upright of heart. 11 Do not let a foot of pride come against me, nor let a wicked hand make me to wander homeless. 12 There doers of evil have fallen; they are thrust down and not able to rise.
