36:1  To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, the servant of the Lord. Transgression speaks to the wicked deep in his heart; there is no fear of God before his eyes.
36:2  For he flatters himself in his own eyes that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
36:3  The words of his mouth are mischief and deceit; he has ceased to act wisely and do good.
36:4  He plots mischief while on his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he spurns not evil.
36:5  Thy steadfast love, O Lord, extends to the heavens, thy faithfulness to the clouds.
36:6  Thy righteousness is like the mountains of God, thy judgments are like the great deep; man and beast thou savest, O Lord.
36:7  How precious is thy steadfast love, O God! The children of men take refuge in the shadow of thy wings.
36:8  They feast on the abundance of thy house, and thou givest them drink from the river of thy delights.
36:9  For with thee is the fountain of life; in thy light do we see light.
36:10  O continue thy steadfast love to those who know thee, and thy salvation to the upright of heart!
36:11  Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me, nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.
36:12  There the evildoers lie prostrate, they are thrust down, unable to rise.
