Psalm 36:2-12 (New International Version)
View In My Bible
2
For in his own eyes he flatters himself too much to detect or hate his sin.1
3
The words of his mouth2 are wicked and deceitful;3 he has ceased to be wise4 and to do good.5
4
Even on his bed he plots evil;6 he commits himself to a sinful course7 and does not reject what is wrong.8
5
Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness9 to the skies.10
6
Your righteousness11 is like the mighty mountains,12 your justice like the great deep.13 O LORD, you preserve both man and beast.14
7
How priceless is your unfailing love!15 Both high and low among men finda refuge in the shadow of your wings.16
8
They feast on the abundance of your house;17 you give them drink from your river18 of delights.19
9
For with you is the fountain of life;20 in your light21 we see light.
10
Continue your love22 to those who know you,23 your righteousness to the upright in heart.24
11
May the foot of the proud not come against me, nor the hand of the wicked25 drive me away.
12
See how the evildoers lie fallen-- thrown down, not able to rise!26
