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] 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!
