Psalm 36 (WEBP)
[1] A revelation is within my heart about the disobedience of the wicked: There is no fear of God before his eyes.
[2] For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his sin.
[3] The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
[4] He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He doesn’t abhor evil.
[5] Your loving kindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
[6] Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Yahweh, you preserve man and animal.
[7] How precious is your loving kindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.
[8] They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
[9] For with you is the spring of life. In your light we will see light.
[10] Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
[11] Don’t let the foot of pride come against me. Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
[12] There the workers of iniquity are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.

Psalm 36 (KJVS)
[1] «To the chief Musician H5329 (8764), [A Psalm] of David H1732 the servant H5650 of the LORD H3068.» The transgression H6588 of the wicked H7563 saith H5002 (8803) within H7130 my heart H3820, [that there is] no fear H6343 of God H430 before his eyes H5869.
[2] For he flattereth H2505 (8689) himself in his own eyes H5869, until his iniquity H5771 be found H4672 (8800) to be hateful H8130 (8800).
[3] The words H1697 of his mouth H6310 [are] iniquity H205 and deceit H4820: he hath left off H2308 (8804) to be wise H7919 (8687), [and] to do good H3190 (8687).
[4] He deviseth H2803 (8799) mischief H205 upon his bed H4904; he setteth H3320 (8691) himself in a way H1870 [that is] not good H2896; he abhorreth H3988 (8799) not evil H7451.
[5] Thy mercy H2617, O LORD H3068, [is] in the heavens H8064; [and] thy faithfulness H530 [reacheth] unto the clouds H7834.
[6] Thy righteousness H6666 [is] like the great H410 mountains H2042; thy judgments H4941 [are] a great H7227 deep H8415: O LORD H3068, thou preservest H3467 (8686) man H120 and beast H929.
[7] How excellent H3368 [is] thy lovingkindness H2617, O God H430! therefore the children H1121 of men H120 put their trust H2620 (8799) under the shadow H6738 of thy wings H3671.
[8] They shall be abundantly satisfied H7301 (8799) with the fatness H1880 of thy house H1004; and thou shalt make them drink H8248 (8686) of the river H5158 of thy pleasures H5730.
[9] For with thee [is] the fountain H4726 of life H2416: in thy light H216 shall we see H7200 (8799) light H216.
[10] O continue H4900 (8798) thy lovingkindness H2617 unto them that know H3045 (8802) thee; and thy righteousness H6666 to the upright H3477 in heart H3820.
[11] Let not the foot H7272 of pride H1346 come H935 (8799) against me, and let not the hand H3027 of the wicked H7563 remove H5110 (8686) me.
[12] There are the workers H6466 (8802) of iniquity H205 fallen H5307 (8804): they are cast down H1760 (8795), and shall not be able H3201 (8804) to rise H6965 (8800).
Young’s Literal Translation
Psalm 36 (YLT)
[1] The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, ‘Fear of God is not before his eyes,
[2] For he made it smooth to himself in his eyes, To find his iniquity to be hated.
[3] The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit, He ceased to act prudently-to do good.
[4] Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.’
[5] O Jehovah, in the heavens is Thy kindness, Thy faithfulness is unto the clouds.
[6] Thy righteousness is as mountains of God, Thy judgments are a great deep. Man and beast Thou savest, O Jehovah.
[7] How precious is Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.
[8] They are filled from the fatness of Thy house, And the stream of Thy delights Thou dost cause them to drink.
[9] For with Thee is a fountain of life, In Thy light we see light.
[10] Draw out Thy kindness to those knowing Thee, And Thy righteousness to the upright of heart.
[11] Let not a foot of pride meet me, And a hand of the wicked let not move me.
[12] There have workers of iniquity fallen, They have been overthrown, And have not been able to arise!
