Psalm 36
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Sin whispers to the wicked, deep within their hearts.
|
|
|
|
They have no fear of God at all.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. In their blind conceit,
|
|
|
|
they cannot see how wicked they really are.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Everything they say is crooked and deceitful.
|
|
|
|
They refuse to act wisely or do good.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. They lie awake at night, hatching sinful plots.
|
|
|
|
Their actions are never good.
|
|
|
|
They make no attempt to turn from evil.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Your unfailing love, O LORD, is as vast as the heavens;
|
|
|
|
your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains,
|
|
|
|
your justice like the ocean depths.
|
|
You care for people and animals alike, O LORD.
|
|
|
|
7. How precious is your unfailing love, O God!
|
|
All humanity finds shelter
|
|
|
|
in the shadow of your wings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. You feed them from the abundance of your own house,
|
|
|
|
letting them drink from your river of delights.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. For you are the fountain of life,
|
|
|
|
the light by which we see.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10. Pour out your unfailing love on those who love you;
|
|
|
|
give justice to those with honest hearts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
11. Don't let the proud trample me
|
|
|
|
or the wicked push me around.
|
|
|
|
|
|
12. Look! Those who do evil have fallen!
|
|
|
|
They are thrown down, never to rise again.
