36:1  For the director of music. Of David the servant of the LORD. I have a message from God in my heart concerning the sinfulness of the wicked: There is no fear of God before their eyes.
36:2  In their own eyes they flatter themselves too much to detect or hate their sin.
36:3  The words of their mouths are wicked and deceitful; they fail to act wisely or do good.
36:4  Even on their beds they plot evil; they commit themselves to a sinful course and do not reject what is wrong.
36:5  Your love, LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.
36:6  Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, LORD, preserve both people and animals.
36:7  How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
36:8  They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights.
36:9  For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.
36:10  Continue your love to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
36:11  May the foot of the proud not come against me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.
36:12  See how the evildoers lie fallen-- thrown down, not able to rise!
