36:1  To the leader. Of David, the servant of the Lord. Transgression speaks to the wicked deep in their hearts; there is no fear of God before their eyes.
36:2  For they flatter themselves in their own eyes that their iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
36:3  The words of their mouths are mischief and deceit; they have ceased to act wisely and do good.
36:4  They plot mischief while on their beds; they are set on a way that is not good; they do not reject evil.
36:5  Your steadfast love, O Lord, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds.
36:6  Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your judgements are like the great deep; you save humans and animals alike, O Lord.
36:7  How precious is your steadfast love, O God! All people may take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
36:8  They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights.
36:9  For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.
36:10  O continue your steadfast love to those who know you, and your salvation to the upright of heart!
36:11  Do not let the foot of the arrogant tread on me, or the hand of the wicked drive me away.
36:12  There the evildoers lie prostrate; they are thrust down, unable to rise.
