36:1 [For the choir director. A Psalm of David the servant of the Lord]. Transgression speaks to the ungodly within his heart; There is no fear of God before his eyes. 36:2 For it flatters him in his [own] eyes, Concerning the discovery of his iniquity [and] the hatred [of it]. 36:3 The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit; He has ceased to be wise [and] to do good. 36:4 He plans wickedness upon his bed; He sets himself on a path that is not good; He does not despise evil. 36:5 Thy lovingkindness, O LORD, extends to the heavens, Thy faithfulness [reaches] to the skies. 36:6 Thy righteousness is like the mountains of God; Thy judgments are [like] a great deep. O LORD, Thou preservest man and beast. 36:7 How precious is Thy lovingkindness, O God! And the children of men take refuge in the shadow of Thy wings. 36:8 They drink their fill of the abundance of Thy house; And Thou dost give them to drink of the river of Thy delights. 36:9 For with Thee is the fountain of life; In Thy light we see light. 36:10 O continue Thy lovingkindness to those who know Thee, And Thy righteousness to the upright in heart. 36:11 Let not the foot of pride come upon me, And let not the hand of the wicked drive me away. 36:12 There the doers of iniquity have fallen; They have been thrust down and cannot rise. 36:13
