36:1 To the director: A song of David, the Lord’s servant. Deep in the hearts of the wicked a voice tells them to do wrong. They have no respect for God.
36:2 They lie to themselves. They don’t see their own faults, so they are not sorry for what they do.
36:3 Their words are wicked lies. They have stopped doing anything wise or good.
36:4 They make wicked plans in bed at night. They choose a way of life that does no good. And they never say no to anything evil.
36:5 Lord, your faithful love reaches to the sky. Your faithfulness is as high as the clouds.
36:6 Your goodness is higher than the highest mountains. Your fairness is deeper than the deepest ocean. Lord, you protect people and animals.
36:7 Nothing is more precious than your loving kindness. All people can find protection close to you.
36:8 They get strength from all the good things in your house. You let them drink from your wonderful river.
36:9 The fountain of life flows from you. Your light lets us see light.
36:10 Continue to love those who really know you, and do good to those who are true to you.
36:11 Don’t let proud people trap me. Don’t let the wicked force me to run away.
36:12 Put this on their grave markers: “Here fell the wicked. They were crushed. They will never stand up again.”
