Psalms 36:7-9

Psalm 36

For the director of music. Of David the servant of the LORD.

1An oracle is within my heart
concerning the sinfulness of the wicked:Or heart: / Sin proceeds from the wicked.
There is no fear of God
before his eyes.

2For in his own eyes he flatters himself
too much to detect or hate his sin.

3The words of his mouth are wicked and deceitful;
he has ceased to be wise and to do good.

4Even on his bed he plots evil;
he commits himself to a sinful course
and does not reject what is wrong.

5Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens,
your faithfulness to the skies.

6Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains,
your justice like the great deep.
O LORD, you preserve both man and beast.

7How priceless is your unfailing love!
Both high and low among men
findOr love, O God / Men find; or love / Both heavenly beings and men / find refuge in the shadow of your wings.

8They feast on the abundance of your house;
you give them drink from your river of delights.

9For with you is the fountain of life;
in your light we see light.

10Continue your love to those who know you,
your righteousness to the upright in heart.

11May the foot of the proud not come against me,
nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.

12See how the evildoers lie fallen—
thrown down, not able to rise!
