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.

King James w/Strong’s #s

Psalm 36 (KJVS)

[1] The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, That there is no fear of God before his eyes.
[2] For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.
[3] The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: He hath left off to be wise, and to do good.
[4] He deviseth mischief upon his bed; He setteth himself in a way that is not good; He abhorreth not evil.
[5] Thy mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; And thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.
[6] Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; Thy judgments are a great deep: O Lord, thou preservest man and beast.
[7] How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.
[8] They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; And thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
[9] For with thee is the fountain of life: In thy light shall we see light.
[10] O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; And thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
[11] Let not the foot of pride come against me, And let not the hand of the wicked remove me.
[12] There are the workers of iniquity fallen: They are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.
