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.

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!
