←Prev   Psalms 36 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



36:1  For the music director; written by the LORD's servant, David; an oracle. An evil man is rebellious to the core. He does not fear God,
36:2  for he is too proud to recognize and give up his sin.
36:3  The words he speaks are sinful and deceitful; he does not care about doing what is wise and right.
36:4  He plans ways to sin while he lies in bed; he is committed to a sinful lifestyle; he does not reject what is evil.
36:5  O LORD, your loyal love reaches to the sky; your faithfulness to the clouds.
36:6  Your justice is like the highest mountains, your fairness like the deepest sea; you preserve mankind and the animal kingdom.
36:7  How precious is your loyal love, O God! The human race finds shelter under your wings.
36:8  They are filled with food from your house, and you allow them to drink from the river of your delicacies.
36:9  For you are the one who gives and sustains life.
36:10  Extend your loyal love to your faithful followers, and vindicate the morally upright!
36:11  Do not let arrogant men overtake me, or let evil men make me homeless!
36:12  I can see the evildoers! They have fallen! They have been knocked down and are unable to get up!
