36:1 For the choir director; by David, Yahweh’s servant. There is an inspired truth about the wicked person who has rebellion in the depths of his heart: He is not terrified of Elohim.
36:2 He flatters himself and does not hate or even recognize his guilt.
36:3 The words from his mouth are nothing but trouble and deception. He has stopped doing what is wise and good.
36:4 He invents trouble while lying on his bed and chooses to go the wrong direction. He does not reject evil.
36:5 O Yahweh, your mercy reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.
36:6 Your righteousness is like the mountains of Elohim, your judgments like the deep ocean. You save people and animals, O Yahweh.
36:7 Your mercy is so precious, O Elohim, that Adam’s descendants take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
36:8 They are refreshed with the rich foods in your house, and you make them drink from the river of your pleasure.
36:9 Indeed, the fountain of life is with you. In your light we see light.
36:10 Continue to show your mercy to those who know you and your righteousness to those whose motives are decent.
36:11 Do not let the feet of arrogant people step on me or the hands of wicked people push me away.
36:12 Look at the troublemakers who have fallen. They have been pushed down and are unable to stand up again.
