Psalm 36:4

Listen to Psalm 36:4
4 Egli divisa iniquità sopra il suo letto; Egli si ferma nella via che non è buona, Egli non abborre il male.

Psalm 36:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 36:4

He deviseth mischief upon his bed
He casts about in his mind on his pillow, when at leisure from all employment; and consults and contrives schemes how to compass his lusts, and to do injury to others, without doing which he cannot sleep;

he setteth himself in a way [that is] not good,
in an evil way, which he chooses and delights in, and determines to continue in, he leaving the paths of righteousness to walk in the ways of darkness:

he abhorreth not evil;
which is to be abhorred both because of its nature and effects; see ( Romans 12:9 ) ; but on the contrary he loves it, takes pleasure in doing it, and in them that commit it: thus, by his thoughts, words, and actions, he appears to be devoid of the fear of God.

Psalm 36:4 In-Context

2 Perciocchè egli si lusinga appo sè stesso, Per venire a capo della sua iniquità, che è pur da odiare.
3 Le parole della sua bocca sono iniquità e frode; Egli non ha più intelletto da far bene.
4 Egli divisa iniquità sopra il suo letto; Egli si ferma nella via che non è buona, Egli non abborre il male.
5 O Signore, la tua benignità arriva infino al cielo, E la tua verità infino alle nuvole.
6 La tua giustizia è simile a monti altissimi; I tuoi giudicii sono un grande abisso. O Signore, tu conservi uomini e bestie.
